I’m Michelle. I design where people and complex systems meet.

At Nvidia, I work on engineering-led products where the hardest design problems are often buried in workflows, dependencies, and shared mental models.

I studied human-centered design at the University of Washington and Cognitive Science at UC San Diego, specializing in Design and Interaction with a minor in Computer Science.

That mix of design and technical curiosity shapes how I work: learn the system deeply, listen closely to the people inside it, and make the path forward understandable.

They’re often very involved in whatever I’m making.
