As a UX designer and researcher, I'm driven by the conviction that empathy is the foundation of great UX. I'm passionate about understanding user needs and translating those insights into intuitive, engaging customer experiences that deliver measurable impact, all while prioritizing a human touch in every design decision.

What makes me curious? I am intrigued by the pursuit of understanding human thought processes, behavioral patterns, and the fundamental motivations behind actions.
