About

I'm currently based in the UK, and open to remote work, freelance projects, and full-time jobs.

Experience: I spent two years as a Front-End Developer before moving into UX/UI design in 2020. Now I'm returning to coding to become a UX Engineer shaping experiences around users and delivering the UI as production-ready code.

Working style: independent yet team-oriented, hardworking, dedicated, and a good listener. I prefer actions over words, while continuing to improve my communication through storytelling, presentation practice, and speaking up more.

Identity: Virgo, INTP/INTJ (still figuring it out), Slytherin, B+, and Life Path Number 9.

Manchester Metropolitan University, UK

Sep 2025 - Sep 2026

After years of working and saving, I could finally pursue a master's degree abroad in the United Kingdom.

It was a long plan, a difficult decision, a big step outside my comfort zone and an expression of my values: resilience, independence, and embracing challenges.

Award: Sponsored Masters 2026 with £2,000 funding for my final project in Service Design, focusing on designing access to the UX lab at SODA MMU.
