About me

My story
My story

My experience teaching English in South Korea and opening a bar there taught me how to adapt, read people, and connect across cultures.

Since then, I have worked at an enterprise company and at a startup. I have launched two startups of my own that did not take off, and I have been laid off twice.

Through it all, I have stayed resilient, kept learning, and kept building. I have added UX writing, HTML, CSS, and vibe coding to my skills. I've built two fully functioning websites from scratch.

I got into UX to make an impact.

I show up, put in the work, learn quickly, and help the people around me succeed. If you are looking for someone who will grow with your team, push for better outcomes, and be a positive force in the workplace, I am that person. You will know you made the right call.

Currently…
