Building upon a diverse professional trajectory, I am now thriving as a Senior Staff Designer at Samsung's Design and Innovation Center, nestled in the dynamic hub of San Francisco, California. My role represents a thrilling intersection of creativity and innovation, continuously challenging and redefining conventional boundaries. Prior to my impactful stint with the Samsung team, I held the helm of the User Experience department at Sunshine Products in Palo Alto, where I steered digital interactions towards greater user-centricity and meaningfulness. This leadership role marked a pivotal milestone in my career. Additionally, my career tapestry is adorned with valuable experiences gleaned at industry giants like Abbott Labs, CDK Global, and CareerBuilder, among others. Each of these experiences has enriched my perspectives and honed my ability to craft fluid and intuitive user experiences.
