EXPERIENCE

I am a professional communicator and lifelong learner with experience as a journalist, photographer, writer, editor, designer, radio host, environmental educator, language teacher, and business administrator.

I like to learn from and about people; that's why I have visited 20 countries and embarked on countless adventures. I'm always up to new challenges, personally and professionally.

DESIGN CAN HELP END HOMELESSNESS

I had specialized in UX design because I realized the impact my projects had on people’s work. Improving their processes improved their work days, and having the power to provide them with that happiness fueled my desire to design.

Later on, I had the chance to work at The Ottawa Mission, a non-profit that has helped people in need for 120 years. There, I had the chance to see firsthand how a good communication strategy can have a direct impact on the life of someone in need.
