Samantha approaches UX design like meeting someone new: with intention, curiosity, and an open mind. She loves diving deep into a problem to craft solutions that evoke emotion and drive impact. When not designing, you might find her brewing yet another cup of matcha, laughing at one too many bad jokes, or both.
