I’ve always been drawn to storytelling, creative projects, and bringing people together. During the pandemic, I worked in healthcare and saw how essential technology was for access to care—but also how often it lacked intuitive design. That experience sparked my drive to create digital experiences that are seamless, human-centered, and impactful.
Today, I work at the intersection of UX, brand, marketing, and product design, turning people’s stories and passions into online spaces that feel authentic and engaging. I’ve also collaborated with a few startups, helping them build strong digital foundations, refine their branding, and connect with their audiences. Beyond digital work, I explore print and biodesign—imagining new ways design can be kind to both people and the planet.
I’m pursuing an MFA in Interaction Design and an MBA in Design Strategy, blending creativity, research, and business insight to shape meaningful products and experiences. With experience in startups, marketing, project management, and community events, I bring both collaboration skills and technical expertise to every project.

I’ve loved drawing ever since I was a little girl, and it remains one of my favorite ways to express myself. My work is inspired by the people, places, and food that surround me—finding beauty in both the extraordinary and the everyday. Growing up in a Mexican-Filipino household in Los Angeles, I was immersed in diverse cultures that shaped the way I see the world and sparked my creativity. Today, both Los Angeles and San Francisco continue to fuel my imagination, offering endless inspiration for the illustrations I create.
