Hiyo, I'm May

I’m a product designer creating clarity inside complex, human-first systems.

Former ops lead turned product designer in Hawaiʻi.
I untangle 0→1 problems, build story-driven experiences, and champion teams that ship fast while caring for people. My work lives where functionality meets quiet delight.

Currently looking for my next full-time role!
