Hi!

i've always had a burning passion for design, visual art, and human psychology, while always finding myself digging deep into the aspects of life that questioned human behavior. on top of that, i found myself immensely involved in the online communities that welcomed creative minds like me. by doing so, i found myself in the interaction design world, and i've never looked back. my dad is the senior director of engagement delivery at salesforce- in other words, he's always on his computer. originally a programmer, he deals with poorly developed ux/ui daily. i draw lots of inspiration from him as he always teaches me more about, but not limited to, customer engagement with certain designs, what to avoid in my designs, things to look for in a potential project collaboration, and blows everyone away with his incredible work ethic. also, he's simply just a person anyone could draw inspiration from regardless of their background. ultimately, my goal is to follow in his footsteps and become an inspirational designer that creates accessible, intuitive interfaces while also providing leadership for designers around me. outside of my career, i am an equestrian, photographer, artist, writer, and i have quite the green thumb. i have competed in eventing and dressage with my horse, guinn, and ride other horses for my trainer. my passion for learning allows for me to pick up new hobbies relating to my career all of the time. i love spending time with my friends, partner, family, as well as meeting new people! when given the opportunity, i can talk to just about anyone.
