I believe tech is at its best when it's built with and for the people who use it. I love diving into new domains, tinkering with tools, and applying them to empower others to focus on what matters most to them.

AS A KID, I WAS ALWAYS BUILDING SOMETHING — FROM MONTHLY HOME DEPOT KITS TO COUNTLESS MICHAELS CRAFT PROJECTS.

THAT LOVE FOR MAKING EVENTUALLY TURNED DIGITAL. I DISCOVERED UX/UI DESIGN THROUGH A HIGH SCHOOL independent study & MENTORSHIP PROGRAM (ism) AND WAS HOOKED.

THINKING I MIGHT BECOME AN ENTREPRENEUR, I HEADED TO UT AUSTIN TO STUDY BUSINESS, INFORMATION SYSTEMS, AND INFORMATICS.

BUT MY PATH SHIFTED WHEN I AUDITED A GRAD CLASS ON HUMAN-AI INTERACTION. I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE SPACE AND JOINED A RESEARCH LAB.

AFTER COLLEGE, I BROUGHT THAT PASSION TO INTUIT AS A ROTATIONAL PRODUCT MANAGER, APPLYING HUMAN-CENTERED AI TO COMPLEX ACCOUNTING AND TAX PRODUCTS.

LOOKING AHEAD, I'M EXCITED TO BRING AI INTO NEW SPACES, BUILDING A WORLD WHERE TECHNOLOGY EMPOWERS OUR CREATIVITY AND CONNECTION INSTEAD OF REPLACING IT.
