Hi, I'm Bella! I'm a consultant, designer, artist, and writer.

I'm passionate about making information more intuitive, accessible, and enjoyable by bridging the gap between people and technology.

Everyone has a story to tell. My goal is to understand, empathize with, and amplify diverse voices and experiences — great information experiences start with people.

Beyond work, I enjoy drawing, singing, fingerstyle guitar, hip-hop dance, reading, and creative writing. I take pride in my curiosity and eagerness to learn, and I hope to get to know myself, others, and the world better as I progress in my life and in my career. I gravitate toward themes of love, fate, eternity, and loss in art and philosophy. Recently, I've been really interested in learning about search and retrieval systems.

Some fun projects that I've worked on in the past include page art and merch for fanzines, selling my own acrylic keychains, and doing commissions for DND campaigns. I also like giving clothes I don't wear anymore new lives by drawing my own designs on them.
