I was born and raised in the Southside of Chicago, Illinois, and I am currently based in Boston, Massachusetts. In my early days I served as a Starbucks Barista, then an Audio-Visual Technician, and later on I accidently became a designer where I gained a huge passion for helping others through accessible design. I'm always striving to look at the bigger picture by using my design thinking and empathy to create effective solutions. Over the years, I’ve learned that good design can reduce anxiety, restore confidence, and solve people's problems in a positive way.
