Experience
CIBC / Oct 2021–Present
I work across the full design process, from making sense of ambiguous problems and shaping UX strategy to prototyping, testing, and bringing ideas to life with cross-functional teams. I focus on onboarding, card acquisition, sales, and product delivery.
Snap Pea Design / Apr 2021–Jul 2021
I worked with five product teams to improve their design system. I created reusable components and guidance that made their products more consistent and accessible while simplifying the build process.
Snap Pea Design / Apr 2020–Dec 2020
I designed visual guides and motion patterns for TremorTek wearables, helping make interactions more accessible and intuitive for people with motor impairments. The work improved task completion by 30% for more than 50,000 users.
University of Waterloo / 2017–2021
I studied Interaction Design, with a focus on UX/UI design, user research, and human factors.
Community Leadership
CIBC Community Involvement / Mar 2026–Present
I create visual campaigns for community initiatives that help people connect and take action. For the Shoebox Project, my posters and email designs helped the campaign exceed its $1,000 fundraising goal within nine hours.
CIBC Equity & Inclusion / Nov 2024–Apr 2026
I helped launch CIBC Equity & Inclusion’s first hybrid DEI mental-health event, supporting its visual communications and coordination for more than 200 participants across 10 business pillars.
