Born and raised in San Francisco, California, I have always been drawn to the world of creativity, shaped by family museum visits, the enchanting narratives of Hayao Miyazaki, and the vibrant storytelling of anime and cinema. These early influences sparked my passion for artistic expression, leading me to pursue a degree in Creative Media at Champlain College in Burlington, Vermont.

​

During my academic journey, I developed a diverse skill set, mastering graphic and visual design, typography, web design, creative writing, and illustration. To deepen my expertise, I completed a six-week Visual Design program at General Assembly in 2019 and a ten-week online UX Design course in 2021. These experiences provided me with a well-rounded foundation in both traditional and emerging design disciplines.

​

In May 2024, I earned my Master of Arts in Graphic Design from the Academy of Art University, further enhancing my proficiency in UX design, brand identity, and illustration. With this multifaceted background, I am eager to bring my creativity, precision, and passion for design to a forward-thinking team that values innovation and collaboration.
