Growing up, I was mesmerized by a certain type of TV show: interior design makeovers. Watching designers transform spaces into beautiful, functional places sparked a deep passion for design in me.

I dreamed of becoming a designer who could create meaningful change. Later, I pursued a degree in Interior Design and worked at a design agency, gaining valuable hands-on experience.

During that time, I frequently used many essential tools for inspiration and research. As I explored more websites and apps, I began noticing design choices that didn’t quite make sense. I started questioning colors, hierarchy, and, much like judging spatial layouts, how spaces were used,and how they could be improved.

A few years ago, I had the opportunity led me to work with special needs organization. This role opened my eyes to the challenges many people face when using digital platforms—colors, tools, and features that seem simple to some can be barriers to others.

That experience was a turning point, re-infrocing my desire to design solutions that work for everyone. It ultimately led me to discover and pursue the field of UX/UI design.
