Designing with AI
I continuously experiment with AI-powered tools to accelerate and enhance my design process. The real craft lies in knowing when to delegate to AI and when human intuition should lead. I’ve integrated platforms like Dovetail for research synthesis, UX Pilot and Lovable for rapid ideation and prototyping, and I’m currently exploring tools like Cursor to push the boundaries between design and code.

Designing for AI
Designing for AI means shaping how humans collaborate with intelligent systems. At TTT, I’ve been fortunate to spearhead our fractional AI team initiative, Handled.work, where we design and implement automations and AI agents for clients. My focus is on creating conversational and agentic experiences that balance transparency and control with speed and productivity, ensuring users always understand what the system is doing, why it’s doing it, and how to stay in charge.

About me
Based in Vancouver, BC 🇨🇦
With five years of experience as a UX designer, I specialize in turning complex challenges into seamless user journeys that leave users smiling (and maybe a little impressed). My work combines a touch of creativity with data-driven insights, delivering designs that not only look great but also perform even better.
I’m open to hybrid and remote Senior UX Design roles where I can make a meaningful impact and continue to grow.
