Product design is... A combination of form and function to solve users' problems.

A good product is… one that can solve/help with a problem while also prioritizing aesthetic and form.

  • I would love to work in cosmetics/beauty industry with a focus on packaging design. I'm drawn to the presentation of products and its importance to customers in influencing their choices and preferences.

  • I come up with my best ideas at a cozy coffee shop in the city.

  • My favorite books as a child were the Junie B. Jones series! I remember reading these books with my sister and always talking about them at school.

  • My favorite place to read is at a coffee shop called the Daily Bean in New Jersey. This cafe feels like home to me!

  • I would be Percy Jackson from the Percy Jackson & The Olympian series by Rick Riordan. Being the son of Poseidon in the book, he has the power to manipulate and control water. This would be a very fun power to have in real life!

Design is a combination of form and function to solve users' problems.”
