My name is Grace, and I'm a UX Designer based in San Diego! I fell into design when I discovered the Diabetes Design Initiative while studying at the University of California, San Diego.
Because I grew up with Type 1 Diabetes, I learned about how important design was in making a difference in the life of people like me. Even now, I continue to learn about its vital impacts in everyone's daily lives!
I've been doing digital illustrations in my free time since the second grade, and ran a small freelance art service for a few years as well!
I looove love love to bake! ...But that can be super ironic considering I have diabetes, so most of my pastries end up getting eaten up by my friends.
I picked up boxing as a fun exercise activity a little while back. Nowadays it's a great way to let off a little steam!
