About me

In 2020, I started as a copywriter.

From 2021 to 2023, I was a content writer.

But early in 2023, I became interested in product design. It was because I wanted to get closer to the users, positively impacting their daily lives.

So in 2024, I joined Atome to leverage my strengths while learning about product first-hand.

The journey so far

Certificates, events, and volunteering.

A few years back I decided to learn how to use HTML and CSS. It's helped me daily. Now, if a website uses a font I don't like or the article is too wide, I know how to make it more readable.

My first UX design certificate! Thank you, Interaction Design Foundation

This talk on passion projects from UX Conference 2024 inspired me to keep following my interests—-like product design!

Unfortunately, I lost the photos from the first time I went in 2023. So this certificate of attendance is going to need to step up here.

Volunteered for Friends of Figma PH!

First time using FigJam collaboratively with the other Friends of Figma volunteers. Super cool.

Beyond my resume

I'm extremely driven to learn. Self-improvement is a value for me, from the books I've read to the YouTubers I've followed. It's why I'm always ready to take on new challenges and gain new skills.
I love running. My proudest running achievement was a 10K at 1:13:52 on January 27, 2024. I'm still trying to break it. Follow me on Strava!
In my down time, you can spot me online playing Overwatch 2, reading someone's biography, or writing an essay that probably—probably— won't get published. (But there's a chance).
