hello! i'm Ria

I'm a UX/Product Designer currently based out of Seattle, and studying Human Centered Design & Engineering at the University of Washington in Seattle. 🌧️​


I studied Interaction design as an undergrad, and worked as a UX Designer in B2B SaaS and B2C (Hospitality, Health-tech, Sustainability) sectors before I started my masters.

At the core of it :

I love jumping into gnarly problems, figuring things out, and making them make sense. I design fast, explore deeply, and build things that look good and work even better.

My work bridges strategy 🧠 and craft👩🏻‍💻 - bringing conceptual thinking and visual finesse together to turn ambiguity into usable solutions.

my design ethos ✨

design speed

Having worked at startups, I have optimized my workflows to explore a wide range of options in a short amount of time. I like to be thorough and ensure that all possibilities are seen through

cross-functional fluency

My experience collaborating with product teams, engineers, and researchers helps me bridge the gap between vision and implementation, grounding bold ideas in practical delivery.

design with depth

I combine user-centered thinking with system-level clarity. With a background in both UX research and design, I move fluidly between discovering insights and designing solutions. I lead with curiosity & design with intent - balancing user value and business goals.

adaptable by nature

Every project has its curveballs and I’m here for them. I’m quick to pivot, iterate with clarity, and keep momentum going, even in ambiguity. Remote user testing or last-minute handoffs, I thrive in fast-moving environments.
