A little bit about me
GBDA @ uWaterloo

Hey! I'm a Global Business and Digital Arts student at the University of Waterloo, also pursuing a minor in computing. For as long as I can remember, I've always been fascinated with technology. Later on, I discovered the world of product design, which blended my love of tech, creativity, and problem solving all in one.

I believe that for a product to succeed, it can't simply be carried by visuals alone. The user experience must be so seamless that it's invisible; not once thought of by the end user. This is what I strive for in every product I build, If this sounds like what you're looking for, my email and LinkedIn DMs are always open.

On the side, I love taking pictures, playing piano, and cycling.
