Hi there!

Thank you for taking the time to explore my portfolio.

I have over 17 years of experience in the tech industry. I began my career by building databases and later transitioned into web application development. After working for several companies, I took on an entrepreneurial role at a music tech startup called FanDistro. I was involved in developing the concept from the ground up, and we ultimately turned it into an award-nominated company recognized for its innovative marketing and social engagement.

At FanDistro, I wore many hats and developed a strong passion for UX/UI design. As the business grew, we continuously analyzed and refined the user interface to improve conversions and enhance user satisfaction. After five years, I decided to formally study UX design to establish a solid foundation in design fundamentals, enabling me to help companies maximize their customer value.

In the summer of 2016, I enrolled in a 6-month project-based mentor-led intensive learning experience at Bloc. During my course, I completed six projects and worked with two clients, all under the supervision of a senior-level designer whose firm works with clients like ESPN, Schlep, and Hoodle. Each project had different requirements and objectives, challenging me to design creatively while keeping familiar patterns.

Since completing my course, I have worked as a designer for major brands such as The North Face, Vans, Timberland, and The Wall Street Journal Wine Club, among others.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing music in my jazz-funk band, Free Flow, and staying active.

Thanks!
