I'm a Digital Product Designer ( UX / UI ) with experience empathizing at top tech companies ( including Facebook & Adobe ) & fast paced startups ( including Dive Chat & Airbnb ).
Currently I open to opportunities for short or long term work in New York City [NY], San Francisco [CA], Dallas [TX], Austin [TX] or Remote.
I think everyone wants the same thing - relationship with humanity, peace with the metaphysical, and experience with the universe. I try to grasp these things with my values: authenticity, creativity, & hospitality.

I've done UX, UI, and Product design projects for the past 3.5 years for dozens of clients. My specialties are web design, mobile design, and enterprise design. Visit Linkedin
I often design UX tests with both short and long term product strategy in mind to identify underrepresented target groups. ( like minorities or impaired users )
I frequently make promo videos and fliers on regular basis for my projects to share with stakeholders core concepts quickly. Visit Vimeo
Capturing empathy in the way things work and how they are designed is a passion of mine. Visit Google Photos

Each dribbble shot is made with love and care. Do check out my work on
Dribbble. Likes and comments are appreciated.
In addition to doing freelance design work for startups and major corporations, I love giving back to the design community. I train URMs to learn basics for software development, game design, and UX / UI Design in my free time.
I also reach underserved communities with programs like Teaching Assistantships, Career Foundry, ADPList, Adobe Design Circle, and more! If you know someone who needs help breaking into design, I would love to help!
In my free time I enjoy exploring new mediums to practice my UX Design thinking process. I try many mediums including Augmented Reality, Data Visualization, Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality, Industrial design, Space Design, Installation design, and more! Be low are a few videos. Please contact me to learn more about process here.

I think I would be an effective addition to your team and I hope you consider me.
