I'm a half-Chinese, half-white UX designer with dual US and Luxembourg citizenship. I was born on the west coast, grew up on the east coast, made my way to Spain, and now call Texas home. You could call me a bit of a nomad, always down to explore new places and cultures. I'm a 90s kid, so I grew up with technology and have always been fascinated by its potential to create positive change in the world.
After teaching English in Spain for three years, I returned to the US to continue my career in education. I used technology in my classroom to empower my students and help them reach their full potential. In 2022, I decided to pursue a new passion in UX design, driven by my desire to continue creating positive change through the power of technology.
