About Me
Before becoming a UX designer, I spent years crafting high-touch experiences in hospitality—managing an upscale restaurant, bartending in fast-paced dive and wine bars, and even working solo aboard an 83-foot catamaran in the Virgin Islands and the Bahamas. Those years gave me a sixth sense for what people need—especially when they can’t quite say it themselves.
Somewhere between designing cocktail menus and managing Instagram accounts, I realized I wasn’t just drawn to aesthetics—I was hooked on how people experience things. That curiosity led me deeper into creative problem-solving, from building websites for restaurants to telling stories through visuals (even contributing to Destination Magazine Virgin Islands). I was translating atmosphere into interface—and I loved it.
Today, I design with the same instincts I once relied on behind the bar: reading the room, thinking on my feet, and tuning into nonverbal cues. UX Academy gave me the tools to turn that instinct into intention, and now I focus on creating digital experiences that are clear, human, and intuitive.

When I’m in the islands, I volunteer at Yellow Cedar, an adult special needs home in Saint Thomas. It’s a grounding reminder of why inclusive, thoughtful design matters—everyone deserves experiences that feel accessible. And when I’m not designing? I’m probably in the kitchen playing “Top Chef” with whatever’s in the fridge, snorkeling or free-diving, or spending Sundays at the farmers market before binge-watching my latest series.
