Hi, I’m Ellen

I’m a product designer based in San Diego, CA and I currently study Cognitive Science, Interaction Design at UC San Diego.

I’ve always had a passion for creating, and through product design, I’ve found a way to make a meaningful impact. By blending creativity, empathy, and problem-solving, I strive to craft intuitive experiences that truly connect with users.

In my off time, I enjoy experimenting with different art mediums whether it’s watercolor, acrylic or digital, journaling, perfecting my matcha recipe, or playing tennis!
