Open to Work
I’m a User Experience & Service Designer with over 3 years of experience in research and design of B2C, B2B, and B2G products, experiences, services and systems in various sectors such as mobility, transportation, banking, and disaster management. With a Master of Science degree in Transportation Systems and Design from the prestigious ArtCenter College of Design, complemented by a background in Industrial Design, I bring a unique blend of conceptual knowledge, procedural know how, and practical insight to every project I undertake.
I’m very passionate about creating holistic, meaningful, and thought through experiences to empower people as I’m deeply motivated by complex and challenging contexts that exist today, as well as speculations of the future. As a member of a design team, I can be counted on to demonstrate design and systems thinking, initiative, tenacity, and collaboration. Moreover, my personal record of playing team sport also enables me to lead, challenge, and thrive in dynamic and high-functioning teams.
I love being challenged to step out of my comfort zone. This was a time that made me realize the value of curiosity!
