Being left-handed, I struggle with a lot of things. Writing in a spiral notebook, opening doors, using the scissors, even getting a suitable chair to sit on in high school because the chairs were half-writing desk chairs, with most of them designed with right-handed people in mind. I have always wondered why things weren’t designed in a way that left-handed people can use them conveniently too. This was the beginning of my curiosity about design even if I was unaware of it.
...MORE THAN JUST PIXELS...
I started my creative journey registering for a design internship without any prior knowledge of product design and finished with a love for design I never thought was possible. My view of the world changed and I began to see design in everything, trying to decipher the design thinking behind them. I was able to connect my old curiosity about scissors’ and chairs to the new knowledge that I found, realizing the importance of equity in design.
Now, I’m a Product Designer with an unquenchable desire for making memorable experiences for users by building intuitive, responsive, and accessible user interfaces.
With a degree in biochemistry, I channel my scientific background into my design process to get satisfactory outcomes that are human-centered, and technologically feasible while aligning business goals with users’ needs. I understand the importance of empathizing with human experiences in creating digital products, so I make it an important part of me.
Currently, I work with an amazing team at IQ Wiki designing intuitive user interfaces to help bring the blockchain knowledge to the world.

HOW I SPEND TIME
Music is an important part of me, and I believe it has a connection with design, as it can influence thoughts and ideas. So I spend a lot of time on music streaming platforms.
My new-found hobby is learning languages and I am currently learning the Korean language.
Outside of design, I love spending time reading books, watching videos on YouTube, camping or hiking with friends, watching movies of different genres, and languages, Playing genshin impact and call of duty, sewing, or crocheting, Making digital art on Procreate and coloring.
I have dreams of travelling the world and learning about people and different cultures, so I hope this gets fulfilled soon.
I try my best in helping aspiring designers in their journey which in turn helps me stay grounded and connected with basic design principles.
