I believe in designing to influence positive change.

​Born and raised in Toronto Canada, I’m currently pursuing a degree in Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo. As a designer with an engineering background, I've designed meaningful experiences at companies of all scale and stages. Throughout my journey,​ I've found ways to apply design methods to a variety of problem spaces and aspects of the design process, from designing for data to implementing design components in code.

Outside of school, you can also find me playing varsity tennis for UW, working out, ​eating sushi, or going on photoshoots with my friends!
