A little about myself

Hey there! 👋 I'm Coco, a UX designer based in Toronto. When it comes to design, I aim to deliver solutions that are simple and elegant.

After completing my BA at University of Toronto near the height of the pandemic, I felt lost. I loved the research and theoretical side of cognitive science, but I also wanted to improve people's lives in a tangible way.

Since venturing into UX, I've come to love the unique opportunity it offers in creating impactful experiences. I'm especially passionate about design systems and accessible design.

Outside of design, you'll find me…

exploring aquariums

some of my favorite places 🐟

creating art

illustration is a hobby I hold close to my heart 🎨

reading

non-fiction, fantasy— my favorite book is Cosmos by Carl Sagan 📚

hiking

I geocache, and I'm pretty good at identifying butterflies 🐛

playing board games

board game cafés and tabletop rpgs 🎲

taking long strolls

and stopping to smell the flowers 🌼

bartering with the beast

he is not to be trusted 👿

Let's connect!

Hey, thanks for looking all the way down here. Click me for a fun fact!

Did you know that there are more trees on Earth than stars in our galaxy? 🪐

Sharks are older than both trees and the rings of Saturn!

"Häagen-Dazs" has no meaning in any language— the creator, Reuben Mattus, just wanted it to sound European!

Woolly mammoths were still walking the Earth while the pyramids were being built!

Singing and speaking are not processed in the same part of the brain— but music and math are!

You can fit all the other planets in our solar system between Earth and the Moon!

The color orange was named after the fruit!

Fingernails grow at about the same rate that continents move!

You're slightly taller at night because your body is getting pulled by the gravity of the moon!

Okay, I'll be honest, that last one I totally made up because I'm running out of steam here. I'm happy to share some more over coffee though :) ☕
