About

Hi! I'm Adora, and I have always been driven by a deep desire to positively impact others. My journey began in biology and healthcare, but I soon realized that my strengths in communication, adaptability, and empathy could shine more in a creative field. UX design became the perfect intersection, merging my desire to make a positive change in people’s lives with my innate love for creativity.

I thrive in inclusive workplaces that value creativity, curiosity, and problem-solving to make a real difference. With a focus on empathetic and meaningful design, I’m eager to bring my unique skills to the UX field.

I love tending to my little indoor jungle of houseplants as they thrive and grow.
