How did I get into UX?

  •  I am a naturally curious designer and analytical creative problem-solver who desires to humanize technology for the user.   

  • These characteristics align with the qualities that are needed to be a great UX designer, and it became clear that my life direction was to become a UX/UI designer.

My Hobbies

Bachata Dancing

On my free time, I love to dance Bachata. Bachata is a social dance that originated from the Dominican Republic; my parents are from the Dominican Republic and I grew up in Washington Heights so I grew up dancing bachata. I am a proud Dominican American and dancing bachata is my creative outlet and a way to connect to my cultural roots.
