Welcome to my digital corner ⭐️

Hi, I’m Ryanne—a product designer based in Southern California. I studied computer science at the University of California Irvine, where I established a foundation in building technologies. My career as a designer began in the ever-evolving world of AI, designing products that harness artificial intelligence to complement digital solutions.

I have a boundless curiosity tempered by an inclination for structure. I see the physical world as a playground for exploration and the digital world as a canvas for sharing stories—design being the bridge that connects them. Balancing these worlds satiates the duality of my own mind— the curious creative and the meticulous perfectionist.

I believe storytelling is a dance of creativity and authenticity—a commitment to sharing truths with unapologetic nuance. As a designer, I lean into a desire to honor these utterly human experiences by putting users at the forefront of my design process, prioritizing data-driven methodologies.

My background in customer service has shaped a design approach that's both user-centered and business-focused, creating products that blend compassion with functionality. I’m currently exploring new opportunities to continue growing as a designer. If you’d like to connect, I'd love to hear from you!

Design, to me

reflects compassion

design at its core relies on the ability to be understanding. throughout my experience, i've come to perceive design as a means of honoring individuality. it allows our differences to be shown, for voices to be heard, and provides safe spaces for all.

is always improving

design often mimics the antics of real life. as humans, we work towards improving ourselves every day, in some way. our job as designers work in conjunction with this idea, it accommodates the dynamics of an ever-changing society.

betters society

i strive to be intentional in everything that i do, and design is another reflection of that sentiment. as a designer, my greatest aspiration is to combat real-life challenges and contribute to a world betterment.

thanks for stopping by!
