RESUME
About Me
I'm a science and tech professional with a passion for design and user experience. With a background in bioinformatics and programming focused on data analysis, I’ve developed a strong sense of logic, structure, and clarity, qualities I also found in the world of design. I'm currently transitioning into UI/UX design, aiming to combine my technical and creative skills to build intuitive, functional, and human-centered digital solutions.
