I’m Michael, a graduate student at the University of Washington pursuing a Master’s in Information Management with a focus on User Experience and Information Architecture.

With a background in retail, customer service, and collaborative work, I bring empathy, communication, and problem-solving into designing intuitive digital experiences. I’ve led projects, worked across disciplines, and built skills through coursework, freelance web design, and community work.

I’m passionate about creating accessible, human-centered interfaces and learning through collaborations and new experiences. Outside of design, I enjoy cooking, collecting vinyl records, and playing video games!
