My mom was an artist and my dad was a jazz drummer, so creativity runs in my blood. As a kid, I was always drawing and taking things apart to see how they worked. My love for technology and art eventually led me to graphic design, which then evolved into web design and frontend development in college. Around that time, I landed a gig at a tech startup in Northwestern University’s business incubator. That was my first real job where I could blend my passion for design, technology, and creative problem-solving.
