I am a creative and detail-oriented UX designer and digital designer with over four years of experience across UX design, market research, digital content creation, and front-end development. I earned an MSc in International Management and Design Innovation from the University of Glasgow and a Bachelors in User Experience Design from Wilfrid Laurier University. I specialize in inclusive, user-centered designs for a wide range of product types, and I have a track record of building dashboards and interfaces that boost engagement and reduce support queries. I thrive in collaborative environments and value clear communication, iterative testing, and data-driven improvements. My work on an online dashboard for building residents led to high engagement and a 60% decrease in repeat questions to customer support, reflecting my commitment to accessible, effective design.
