Hi, I’m Ethan — a UX Designer with a unique background in Biology, Informatics, and Data Science. My journey into design wasn’t linear: I originally set out to pursue medicine, but quickly realized my true passions lay at the intersection of art, technology, and people. That realization, combined with a Google UX Design Certificate and hands-on startup experience, opened the door to the career I love today.

​

As a designer, I stand for clarity, empathy, and impact. I believe that great design empowers users by simplifying the complex, creating accessibility, and giving people confidence in the tools they use. Whether it’s improving workflows in insurance or reimagining digital healthcare experiences, I bring a data-driven mindset balanced with storytelling and creativity to every challenge.

​

Beyond work, you’ll usually find me exploring the Pacific Northwest, seeking out new coffee shops, painting, or getting lost in a good book. I believe curiosity fuels creativity, and I love drawing inspiration from the world around me to bring fresh perspectives into my work.
