Hi, I'm Jeeya!
A multidisciplinary designer and marketer with experience across UI/UX, user research, marketing strategy, and product development. From designing digital experiences and conducting user research to building marketing strategies and websites, I combine creativity, business thinking, and a human-centered approach to solve problems and create meaningful experiences.
Open to UI/UX Design & Research, Marketing, and Product Design roles
About Me
I've been designing since I was eight, starting with fashion and eventually bringing that same curiosity into the digital world. At Waterloo, studying Global Business and Digital Arts, I found the intersection of design, technology, and business through projects like a VR social app, UWFE's marketing, and building a website and marketing strategy from the ground up at Bio-Ag.
At RBC, I worked as a business analyst while continuing to bring a design mindset to my work designing an internal site, conducting user research, and helping build a programming initiative for technical talent. These experiences taught me that great design isn't just about how something looks; it's about understanding people and solving real problems.
I'm an empath, and I've come to see that as one of my strengths. I notice the things others might scroll past, and I care about making experiences feel human.
Outside of work, you'll find me trying new restaurants, deep in a Formula One rabbit hole, or adding to a bucket list that's growing faster than I'm checking things off.
If you're building something and care about the people using it, let's talk.
