✱ A bit about me...

I'm Hannah! I graduated from Boston University with a BFA in Graphic Design and a minor in Computer Science. I am passionate about using design for good, particularly its potential in simplifying complex processes, data, and problems.

From understanding the landscape of a product to creating polished visuals, I find so much joy in the design process. I'm fortunate to have had diverse experiences that have built up both a creative and technical tool kit that I can adapt to any project.

When I'm not designing, I'm busy reading, exploring new restaurants, and watching classic movies on Kanopy!

Food for thought

The bigger part of it is just in finding the right ways of thinking, finding the right representations of abstractions, so people can think thoughts that they couldn’t think before. The example I like to give is back in the days of Roman numerals, basic multiplication was considered this incredibly technical concept that only official mathematicians could handle. But then once Arabic numerals came around, you could actually do arithmetic on paper, and we found that 7-year-olds can understand multiplication. It’s not that multiplication itself was difficult. It was just that the representation of numbers — the interface — was wrong.
