Why UX?
Raised as a first-generation Asian American, I witnessed the barriers my mom faced in navigating technology that often felt alienating as it didn't consider her needs. As a child, I took on the role of tech-savvy advocate for my mom, giving me firsthand insight into the barriers faced by marginalized users.

Fueled by my childhood upbringing, I'm dedicated to leveraging my creative and analytic skills to bridge the gap between users and technology by creating digital experiences that prioritize accessibility and inclusivity, ensuring that every user feels seen and heard in the digital world.
Professional Background
