I'm Mandy, a Bay Area native with a passion for creating delight at scale. Currently I'm studying Cognitive Science (Interaction Design) at UCSD.

With an early background in illustration, I've gravitated toward product design as a related discipline for empowering users. I have experience shipping digital experiences for clients ranging from SoCal-based nonprofits to Fortune 500 companies. In an HCI research setting, I've investigated the social applications of user-centered design. I am most excited to work on projects that involve a high degree of visual craft and product strategy.

When off work, you can find me at the tennis court or gym, doodling my next animal sticker as @Littlemandyart, and trying new cafes.
