My journey has been a fulfilling blend of deep healthcare insights and a passionate pivot towards user-centered design. Wearing many hats—quite literally, from my lab coat to my designer's cap—I thrive on creating innovative solutions that enhance the well-being and daily experiences of individuals. My goal is to bridge the gap between healthcare and design, crafting products and content that are not only functional but also deeply empathetic and engaging.
