Welcome to my portfolio
Here is where I showcase the intersection of art and technology. With a background in oil painting and an Associate's in Art, my journey as both an artist and a developer has been driven by a passion to bridge creative expression with digital innovation. From my oil paintings, which reflect my deep appreciation for traditional artistry, to my work as a developer, where I explore how technology can enhance human creativity, my goal is to merge these two worlds. Whether through research on AI in education, creating digital tools for remote collaboration, or designing websites that engage users, I strive to create solutions that empower individuals to express themselves, collaborate, and innovate in meaningful ways. This portfolio represents my ongoing exploration of how art and technology can work together to shape a more creative and inclusive future.

Favorite Things
For this project, I used Figma and Adobe Illustrator to create a web composition that reflects my love for design. I developed a custom logo inspired by Gustav Klimt's iconic painting, The Kiss, aiming to capture its intimate, elegant energy. The design embraces warm tones, evoking a sense of coziness and sophistication, while maintaining a modern and cohesive aesthetic.
Acedemic Papers
My academic work focuses on the intersection of technology, user experience, and education. In "Exploring the Role of Chatbots in Education Systems," I investigate how AI tools like ChatGPT can improve learning outcomes by enhancing accessibility, personalizing instruction, and supporting student engagement—while also addressing challenges such as academic integrity and ethical usage. In a separate Amazon Usability Study, I analyze the user experience of one of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms, highlighting key insights into interface design, accessibility, and consumer behavior. Together, these studies reflect my commitment to creating more intuitive, inclusive, and impactful digital experiences.
