My Story
"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards"

We need to understand and analyze the present and history to create a better tomorrow. What did we lack in the past? What would become useful and later on – crucial? We are that next step. To begin creating useful user experiences, we need to understand others and different perspectives.
I took the first step and went to work in a foreign country - China. I had no knowledge of the local language and limited knowledge of what I thought I knew about the culture upon arriving. Instead of frustration, my thirst for new outlooks only brought me opportunities and adventures. I am that person that doesn’t get scared or intimidated by a situation, instead excitedly embarks on the adventure. Besides learning about the culture in China, I saw all the advanced technology and opportunities that North America could have as well in the future. China has fast trains that can travel up to 431 km/h. All businesses accept electronic wallet payments without a service fee. They have apps that act as electronic wallets, social media, messaging, and game apps all-in-one. The shopping, tracking systems, technology that assists with daily life blew me away. The seamless and easy to navigate user experience in China made me want to work in the field of user experience in North America. I wish to embark on a mission building experiences driven by human desires and needs. Examples would include Google Maps versus a physical paper map or communicating through social messaging apps versus calling up all your friends and family. My goal is to create solutions that may be deemed crucial in the future. “The future depends on what we do in the present.” – Mahatma Gandhi |
I completed a graduate certificate in Interactive Media Management and multiple certificates for Google Analytics. Having worked in the mutual fund industry, I have learned to analyze and identify anomalies within data. Having worked as an educator, I’ve formulated engaging and educational activities to help kids learn and remember the material taught. Through analyzing data and communicating with others, I can efficiently formulate useful and intriguing experiences for a better tomorrow.
