Summary

As a UX designer, every design decision that I make properly answers and addresses user problems. Utilizing a decade of marketing and sales experience in the hospitality industry, my focus has always been on client satisfaction. However, it is my ability to tackle any challenge, create my own opportunities, and provide a different perspective that stems from being a bilingual, multicultural mother of 3 that truly sets me apart.
