Hey there, I'm Therina!
Creativity has always been a core part of my life. I've always loved drawing and exploring stories in various forms growing up and this slowly grew into an interest in how visuals shape stories. That curiosity pulled me into the world of design!
Today, I channel that creativity into crafting digital experiences that balance research, storytelling, and usability. I recently graduated from the University of Waterloo with a degree in Communication Arts and Design Practice, where I became interested in how people interpret information and make decisions when navigating digital interfaces.
For me, design is more than the visuals, it’s a chance to create moments that feel meaningful and easy to move through.

My design journey so far
Constantly seeking opportunities to grow.
