my • rel (easy peasy, right?)

02 — How I got started

I got my first design job at a home decor company as a graphic designer. I enjoyed the job, and the guy I was dating at that time (…whom I ended up marrying) suggested taking the UX/UI Design Bootcamp at General Assembly.

After thinking about it, I decided to take the leap! 🏃‍♀️

Ever since completing the bootcamp, I’ve been working at tech companies and love what I do. This career has opened up so many opportunities for growth in my personal and professional life. 👩‍💻

I love what I do and it’s been such a thrill to work for such amazing companies like Google and Apple. I can’t wait for all the opportunities to come!

03 — What I’m up to

Currently, I work as a Senior UX Designer.

04 — Outside of work

I LOVE watching 80’s movies like Big, Coming to America, Back to the Future, When Harry Met Sally. I’m also a sucker for rom-coms and feel good movies. 💕

I enjoy tending plants 🪴. We’re in the process of planting fruits and veggies in our backyard, which I’m very excited about. I also love going to Botanical Gardens. Anytime we travel somewhere, we always need to go to the local botanical garden.
