I am a current graduate student at Harvard University pursuing a Master’s in Design Engineering, a dual program between the Graduate School of Design and School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

I come from an interdisciplinary background (Info Science/UX & Spanish, University of Michigan ‘22), which has made me especially skilled at speaking the language of engineers, designers, and business teams, all while also keeping the user at the forefront, a non-negotiable in today's fast-moving tech landscape. Colleagues and clients have commended me for seeing unique connections where others see silos, enabling me to navigate complex challenges with a creative, systems-oriented mindset— a skill I honed as a functional designer and product manager in tech consulting at Accenture Song for the past 3 years.

I returned to school because I want to get my hands dirty. I am building on my strengths by deepening my technical and design expertise, with the goal of pivoting into the phygital, or cyber-physical, product development space. I’m especially inspired by the health tech, sports, or fitness industries, although I’m open to where the journey takes me! At the end of the day, I want to join teams that are ambitious, growing, and moving quickly.

Before pursuing graduate studies, I worked at Accenture Song based out of New York where I helped design, build, and implement technology solutions to help my clients achieve their business and strategic goals. I worked in highly regulated industries, including both Life Sciences and Financial Services, which added a level of complexity that has prepared me to jump into any space next.

My roles were mostly focused around functional design and product management leveraging Adobe Experience Manager content management suite (on-premise & Cloud) to create web experiences that were intuitive and clear for users, but also fit the requirements of my clients' marketing, data, and technology ecosystems. I also gained experience in digital transformation, large team enablement, and technology platform assessment.
