Experience

My professional experience spans user experience design, front-end engineering, and digital product development, with a focus on creating intuitive, accessible, and scalable web experiences. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with cross-functional teams to transform complex business requirements into user-centered solutions that balance functionality, performance, and visual design. I’ve contributed to enterprise-level initiatives involving UX research, design systems, personalization, accessibility, and modern front-end development. By combining creative thinking with technical expertise, I help bridge the gap between design and engineering, ensuring that ideas are translated into high-quality digital experiences. Every role has strengthened my ability to solve complex problems, communicate across disciplines, and deliver solutions that create meaningful value for both users and organizations. I continue to expand my skills while embracing new technologies, design methodologies, and best practices that drive innovation and continuous improvement.

UX Designer
Feb 2016 – Present

Design engineer bridging Figma prototypes and production front-end for TI's product and customer-facing pages, working across marketing, engineering, and third-party platforms to ship scalable, real-world tools.

  • Designed and built a customizable homepage carousel widget, giving the marketing team the ability to target slides by audience and region, including multi-language content — implemented via a third-party A/B testing platform to override the default carousel without disrupting existing infrastructure.
  • Redesigned the End-Equipment Reference Diagram (EERD) page into a responsive display, solving a disorganized, viewport-constrained layout so customers could more easily find related products and reference designs — the improved structure also made it easier for engineers to submit and design new diagrams.
