Dealing with childhood hearing loss fundamentally shaped my understanding of communication. My mother’s effort to find specialized visual tools showed me that design can be truly helpful and impactful. I became a Graphic Designer to pay that forward, striving to create accessible, user-centric work that uses pictures and illustrations to tell stories, clarify complex information, and help all people connect, learn, and grow.
