About Me
Design is not just what I do, it's how I interpret and see the world. I am deeply interested in how products and environments shape user experience.
Dedicated to this inquiry, through research, I study how people experience the world, and where design gets it wrong. I dig into behaviors, habits, and decision-making to uncover insights that inform thoughtful products, services, and systems. My work blends research rigor with practical design application: from observing real-world behavior, to synthesizing patterns, to guiding solutions that actually work in people’s lives.
From an early age, I found myself reimagining everyday environments, questioning why things were designed the way they were and how subtle changes in design choices could alter meaning and emotion. This instinctive curiosity has led me to explore design across disciplines, from industrial design and fashion design to digital systems and product design, always with an emphasis on how people interact with what surrounds them.
For me, design sits at the intersection of creativity, research, and problem-solving. It is both expressive and analytical; a way to translate abstract ideas, emotional responses, and functional needs into tangible experiences. My work is informed by design thinking, accessibility, and environmental psychology. I am particularly drawn to examining how design decisions and interface design choices can either support or hinder usability and user comfort.
I am currently extending this exploration through a Master’s in Design at Carleton University, where my focus centers on spatial design, color, and human interaction within built environments and workplace design. Through research-driven practice, I aim to better understand how designed spaces communicate, shape behavior, and ultimately contribute to more emotionally responsive and human-centered experiences.
