Hello...

I grew up in San Francisco, California, and lived there until the end of high school in 2020. Following this, I had the opportunity to pursue an undergraduate degree in Industrial Design at UAL Central Saint Martins in London.

In 2023, I moved to Milan to intern and pursue my Diploma in Professional Studies at the TIMEX creative lab. This decision was both professional and personal, bringing me closer to my Italian family.

Within my design process, I prioritize understanding the perspectives and needs of both end-users and collaborators. By empathizing and putting myself in their shoes, I hope adopt a user-centric approach, that helps create designs and experiences that are considerate and holistic. My focus is on actively delving into the motivations, challenges, and preferences of those I am designing for, ensuring that I prioritize their experiences over my own.

Embracing discomfort and plunging headfirst into challenges has been integral to my journey. Actively seeking out opportunities to expand my skill set, I strive for a more comprehensive understanding of culture, life, and design.
