I've been a designer for over 20 years, starting in fashion and now working in UX.
I spent 13 years in fashion design, bringing ideas to life from concept to production. Over time, I became more interested in the thinking behind the work, how decisions were made, how things were structured, and how people actually experienced what we created. That's what led me into UX.
Switching careers wasn't easy. I had to start over, learn everything from scratch, and build my way back up.
But going through that process showed me what I'm capable of. If I don't know something, I'll figure it out. If there's an opportunity, I'll find it. And when something's worth solving, I go after it.
That's how I ended up teaching myself to build. I designed and shipped a mobile app on my own, using AI tools like Cursor and Claude Code, and put it on both the App Store and Google Play.
I'm always connecting the dots and thinking about how things can be better beyond what's right in front of me.
I like collaborating and hearing different perspectives, but I don't wait to be told what to do. I take ownership, move things forward, and see them through.
At the end of the day, I just like figuring things out and turning ideas into something real.
