Designing with AI
Stanford-certified in UI/UX for AI products. I design AI experiences that people can understand and trust, with clear explanations, honest uncertainty, and the user in control. When it speeds up exploration, I prototype with tools like Figma AI and Lovable.
JobPilot - Resume & Job Match Analyzer
An AI-assisted job search workspace that compares a resume against any job description, showing matched keywords, skill gaps, and a match score, alongside an application tracker, resume versions, and cover letters. Designed to make an opaque screening process transparent, so job seekers can see why they match, not just a number.
