As a senior front-end designer, I thrive at the crossroads of design and code, bringing my deep expertise in both areas to elevate the user experience. I’ve been building user-friendly, purposeful websites, products, and brands for over six years.

How does being queer inform your work?

Being queer gives me a deep sense of empathy for others, which helps me understand clients, users, and other people’s goals along the design process. My work reflects this intuitive sense because I am not afraid to explore meaningful emotion, impactful ideas, and inclusiveness. Through my lens of being queer, I find joy when designing with people in mind.
