Hire Best UX/ UI Designer Seattle

Where Ethics & Design Meet.

With a foundation in law and non-profit leadership, I create research-driven, accessible experiences that put people first.

Intro

My path to UX/UI design wasn’t linear—but it was intentional. After years in paralaw and non-profit work, I was drawn to a field where creativity, empathy, and human behavior intersect. With a lifelong curiosity about psychology and a deep drive for helping others, I found in UX a space where I could design with purpose and think with compassion. Today, I use my background in research, problem-solving, and advocacy to create thoughtful, user-centered solutions that are both functional and meaningful.

My Design Philosophy:

Create experiences that deliver meaningful value to users, clients, and stakeholders, fostering a positive and balanced impact for all.
