Pronounced "Rahf-ah-el". I'm a user experience designer and researcher with a Bachelor's of science in biotechnology. I have experience at both small agencies and large corporations. I can design, I can code, I can draw. My designs are informed by what users need first and foremost; I care about accessibility for all, not just checking WCAG off a list. My recent fascination is the exploration of strategically and ethically engaging with AI, in product design and in life.
I am also a 2D and 3D artist, working with paint, printmaking, and clay. I am a budding web developer with various language and CMS experience. This site was built with Webflow, but all my previous sites were built from scratch with plain old HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
