Hello

I struggled with an uncontrolled autoimmune disease for 9 years before finally reaching remission 2 years ago.

Every day since, I've made a point not to take health for granted.

​

Slowly feeling myself return to normal was surreal: so much so that I did not believe it.

I worried that every little symptom was a sign of my disease returning. It took a whole year of health to start to understand what my body was like and that I could experience discomfort without it being inflammation. 

​

I decided to create a way for patients to track their symptoms and health metrics as a way to understand their disease patterns and the difference between an active flare and a common adverse symptom. 

 

This manifested as Remetra, a platform where people can track symptoms intuitively and visualize correlations that allow for peace of mind.

​

Through this project, I discovered my love and aptitude for design and creativity. I've been able to utilize my engineering and human-centered design skills to create Remetra's wireframes. I incorporate user needs as reflected from surveys sent out to the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation, where I serve on the Executive Committee of the Young Professionals Community.

​

Something instrumental in helping me through my active disease and the first phase of remission was indoor cycling. The empowerment and confidence I would leave those sessions with would propel me through my hardest days. I'm now a Cycle Trainer at Re​v'd Fitness, where I strive to create an inclusive, challenging, and uplifting environment for my athletes. 

​

I'm passionate about empowerment through data-driven health insights and instilling confidence through creativity.
