I truly believe that what makes life worth living is the interactions and relationships we have with others. As a people person, I enjoy working in teams, listening to new ideas, and building a sense of community. I find joy in helping others and finding ways to improve others' well-being as well as my own. As a first-generation college graduate, I've been given the opportunity to get to meet different people from a diverse set of backgrounds - which really inspired me to explore differences in the way people feel, think, and behave. Studying psychology further pushes me to take research more seriously and discover ways I can shine light on how these differences make us all unique.
As a natural empath and creative, I strive to utilize my communication skills and drive to pursue a career in Product Design or Management, with expertise in UI.
I received my B.S. in Psychological & Brain Sciences, Minor in Art, and Minor in Japanese at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Ask me anything about these topics!
