  • Role on Team: Product Designer
  • Lesson: Take initiative at every opportunity. At worst, you'll know what not to do - at best, you'll do something great. Most of all, it will push you to learn everything about the product and become a knowledgeable member of the product team.
Mobile App / February 12, 2019 - Present / UX UI Designer / Remote

E-Commerce / August 1, 2018 - September 15, 2018 / Freelance Contract / 20 hours over 6 weeks
Vanmates is a platform that helps students from around the world find housing and schooling in Vancouver. My job as a freelancer was to create an account based ecosystem MVP within a 2 month time period.

Mobile App / October 1, 2017 - November 30, 2017 / Student Capstone Project
The goal of Power Up is to combine my interest in video games with a real world motivational problem, like commitment to health, to create healthy habits through gamified fitness.

Ditter was part of a week long sprint where our team created an app for digital literacy. Our team was really strong at staying organized, decision making, and putting it all togehter
