Hi, I’m Karina
I’m a designer based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
My learning differences as a kid did not conform well with school or the systems of my youth. They made me attuned to systems that aren’t optimized well for people and filled me with a burning excitement to improve them.
I view human interface design as the art of optimizing those systems to empower people. By understanding humans and changing the systems they use, we create space for others to be their best selves and build a more self-actualized future.
Outside of work, you can find me in hot yoga, at Pilates, camping in Yosemite, or in a K-pop dance studio.
