Hello! Thanks for stopping by. I’m a product designer in the tech space with a background in engineering and cognitive science.
I aspire to apply design thinking to different industries and problem spaces, building community and connection at the heart of everything I create.
I work best in a design-oriented process, collaborating with all aspects of the business to keep data and research as part of the conversation.
I love matcha lattes, creating travel itineraries, homemaking Chinese baked goods, and running through my city.

Systems Design Engineering @ University of Waterloo
Systems Design Engineering aims to connect the dots and explore topics outside traditional engineering disciplines. Here I pursued “big-picture thinking” that involves multi-disiplinary topics surrounding people, software and business as factors involved in solving problems using modelling, analysis, and industry design methods.
A student-run group at the University of Waterloo aimed at gathering young designers to build a design community. We host company workshops, Office Hours, and provide resources to aspiring UWaterloo designers.
Blueprint strives to make technology accessible and useful for those who create communities and promote public welfare. We partner with non-profits to provide technology services such as websites, mobile applications, analysis tools—free of charge.
16 Weeks of Internships is an initiative created alongside my friends aimed at humanizing the tech internship experience. I created a vlog about my startup experience and helped connect mentors to mentees for online coffee chats in response to COVID-19.
