I’m Sophie, a product designer based in Brooklyn, NY. My journey into design started in high school — I loved making zines and creating a platform where other creators could share their work. What especially fascinated me was how multidisciplinary each issue felt, which is why I decided to pursue a degree in Integrated Design and Media at New York University’s Tandon School of Engineering.

Having an analytical eye allowed me to design with technical constraints in mind while identifying the sweet spot where functionality, elegance, and delight coexist.

I am passionate about creating for products that empower people to feel confident in every action they do. Thus, Design is the craft of giving form to ideas and purpose to every detail.

In my free time, I love to travel to new places, try new recipes, read fiction books, and collect fonts.
