I am a Product Designer focused on crafting solutions that make complex and mundane systems a little easier (and less-mundane when possible โบ).
I live in Toronto and am a graduate from the University of Toronto where I pursued a Bachelor of Information concentrating on UX Design.
Being born and raised in Toronto, I was surrounded by a richly diverse environment. This gave me the opportunity to better understand and empathize with how others see the world, shaping me into who I am today. I still have much to learn and I can't wait to see how I will continue to grow!
My creativity extends beyond my work. When I'm not solving problems you can find me blinging out my nails or crocheting clothes. Right now, I'm working on a chunky cardigan for Toronto's cold and snowy days. I also love experimenting with baking and can whip up a mean pumpkin pie!

I wanted to design a personal logo for my website; something that was simple, fun, and meaningful. Reflecting on my childhood, I recalled my love for sweets, particularly cookies. Not just any typical ones, but tapioca cookies. In Vietnamese, these are called bรกnh phแปฅc linh.
Some of my fondest memories involve making these colourful cookies with my family and feasting on them afterwards. These cookies are delicate and require careful handling, but when pressed and moulded, they transform into intricate, beautiful shapes which I was inspired by. For me, they symbolize that sometimes wonderful things take time and care, even if they feel fragile along the way.
