About Me

As a hybrid UX/UI Designer and Frontend Developer, I take products from user research through high-fidelity prototyping to structural frontend development, bridging human-centered design and technical execution across the full product lifecycle. My deepest expertise is in digital health: translating complex clinical requirements into interfaces that improve outcomes for patients and workflows for healthcare providers. It's work has taught me how to design for genuinely high-stakes complexity without losing usability - a skill I bring to any domain with real complexity to untangle. Alongside human health tech, a personal commitment to animal welfare has recently driven me to explore how digitalization can be applied to the veterinary sector.

Projects

During my academic journey, I focused on developing prototype systems across varying levels of fidelity, anchoring my work in user-centered methodologies. Both my Bachelor's and Master's theses in Medical Informatics served as extensive design studies that deeply introduced me to UX research. Through iterative design processes, I utilized both quantitative and qualitative methods including structured surveys, user testing, and clinical interviews.

Parallel to my studies, I transitioned this academic foundation into the startup and research ecosystems. In my professional roles, I have helped build products from the ground up with driving initial UX research, leading iterative design cycles, conducting stakeholder interviews, and collaborating closely with engineering teams. Most recently, I took on design and code for an early-stage health tech startup, taking ownership of both the user experience and the agile frontend development of the public landing page and responsive web application. In a personal project I also improved my skills in iOS development and Swift programming.
