LEARNING DESIGNER

Once, I thought design was about making things look good.
‍
Then I realized it’s about making things make sense.
I now work at the intersection of AI, education, and human behavior—crafting tools that help people learn, reflect, and grow. My process is fast, thoughtful, and rooted in curiosity.
