Me.

I view accessibility as a critical civil rights issue that deserves far more attention than it currently receives. My commitment to accessibility advocacy began at age ten, inspired by mentors like Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient James Brady and learning rights advocates David Flink and Jonathan Mooney.

During my UX studies at Georgia Tech in 2021, I faced unexpected neurological challenges which gave me firsthand insight into how health conditions shape digital interaction. After eventually finding proper treatment, I've emerged with a renewed passion for creating thoughtful designs that empower all users. This journey has equipped me with unique insights into the diverse ways people interact with digital interfaces, making me an empathetic and passionate accessibility advocate.

These circumstances have also driven me to deliver impactful work while still battling neurological struggles—whether through consulting engagements or delivering Haiti's first UX design talk in 2022—while staying grounded in my mission to improve lives through accessible design.

Now with my health renewed, I’m eager to apply my CPACC certification and user-centered design expertise to exciting new projects that challenge me creatively and professionally. My goal is simple: to help build functional and beautiful products that work for everyone.
