Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m an Industrial Designer driven by curiosity, empathy, and a deep belief that good design starts with people.
I’m currently a senior at the University of Notre Dame, where I have developed a passion for research-driven product development and experience design. I love digging into the “why” behind human behaviors, uncovering meaningful insights, and translating them into thoughtful products, systems, services, and experiences that make every day life a little better.
My work is grounded in curiosity. Whether I’m conducting interviews, building prototypes, exploring form development, or refining the details of a final concept, I’m most energized by learning from others and designing with intention.
Outside of the studio, you can find me hiking, running, knitting, or finding fun ways to build community with those around me. I’m someone who genuinely loves learning new things, meeting new people, and finding creative ways to make an impact.
