Hello, nice to meet you!
I come from a media production background in audio and video editing, writing, producing social media content, designing graphics, digital banners, and more.
While I love the creative and business aspects of producing a show, my curiosity about human behavior and innovative technology led me to pursue user experience, interaction design, and product strategy with Designlab.
At the very core of what I have done in media, my mission has always been to constantly educate myself and others through learning and understanding people and their stories more deeply. With my parents working as nurses and my sister working in public policy, I found my way of creating a big impact in people's lives through design.
What I love about UX is the opportunity for me to problem-solve creatively. I like getting into the user's head and figuring out the best solution to improve a product. It's a fun combination of creativity, technology, and business (which I absolutely love).

🐶 I have a dog named Pogi. He's a Pekingese/poodle mix (peekapoo). In tagalog, "pogi" means handsome. He's pretty chill and lazy like me. Check him out on Instagram @pogi_peekapoo!
