What I’ve made, how it works, and why it matters
Hitachi Digital Services | DRE
Companies feed their data into AI and analytics tools, but if that data is late, missing or wrong, the results can't be trusted. I designed and prototyped the dashboards data engineers use to monitor their pipelines and trace errors back to their cause.

Cold-Mode Button: Enhancing Smartphone Usability in Cold Weather
A system-level phone mode for sub-zero weather. Cold Mode turns on from the lock screen, enlarges touch targets, strengthens contrast and haptic feedback, and keeps emergency contacts one tap away, so people can use their phones without taking their gloves off.

CareCircle: Designing Inclusive Digital Experiences
An accessibility-focused app that brings everyday services, from groceries and rides to medications and bill payments, into one simple place for older adults and anyone who finds juggling multiple apps overwhelming.

Affective Behavior Interaction Lab
Redesigning the website for UMBC's Affective Behavior Interaction Lab, where I currently work as a UI/UX designer.
