Nice to meet you! I’m Samantha :)
I’m a UX and Product designer based in Vancouver, Canada.

I approach design in the same way I get to know someone new: with intention, curiosity, and an open mind. I take joy in exploring wide and diving deep to craft intuitive, meaningful solutions that drive emotion and impact.

Whether you have a position to fill, a design problem to solve, or just need your next K-drama rec, I’m always up for a challenge. Tell me more!

In my off time, you can find me enjoying a cup of milk tea, curating monthly playlists, head-bopping to live music, (re)watching Brooklyn 99 or Gilmore Girls, taking dance classes, chasing sunsets, sleeping (my record is 16hrs), making gifts for people I love, spending time with my family, reading (at a snail’s pace), taking Avalon games too seriously, trying new restaurants and cafes, solving crossword puzzles, planning my next trip, documenting adventures on my film camera, and appreciating the little things in life.
