Hi, I’m Tiara
A dual degree Human-Computer Interaction and Masters of Business Administration student at the University of Michigan, embarking on a journey to master the art of storytelling through design.
I’m just a girl exploring tech.
ME AT A GLANCE.

As a consultant, I had the opportunity to work across multiple industries ranging from product innovation, applied design, customer experience, and human capital.
My experience allowed me to work with companies such as Nike, Meta, Toyota, and even Walmart.
Most recently I interned at Google as a UX Design Intern on the Privacy Sandbox team.

When I am not designing you can find me binge watching movies, journaling on my balcony with a chai tea latte, or learning how to serve on the tennis courts (huge shout out to adult beginner courses).
“I’ve always been a good listener. Now I’m a good listener who transforms the stories users share into viable products.”
