A woman looking at the catalogue in front of the artwork

I'm Sabrina,

currently pursuing my degree in Interactive Arts and Technology at Simin Fraser University. I’m not just a pixel pusher, I design with my ears (listen), eyes (observe) and heart (empathize). My passion of being a UX designer comes from my wish to enhance people’s everyday lives and to solve real-world issues with my design solutions. While pursuing functional and practical designs, I also love to balance my work with lively spirits !

Design shouldn't just look good, it should do good as well.

To truly make a change in the world, I strive to adopt a sustainable UX design mindset to reduce the massive carbon footprint made by digital products. From reducing my stationery usage, to optimizing the findability in web pages for more accessible content, little things like these add up to save resources and energy. If you're interested, check out this manifesto I made.
