Hi, I'm Ara!

I am an avid mountain biker, hobbyist keyboard builder, and language learner.

When I’m not hitting the trails or tinkering with custom mechanical keyboards, you’ll likely find me crocheting, studying Japanese, or exploring new video game worlds.

I am a thinker.

I like to brainstorm ways to improve existing products or experiences, and to think about possible new products and ideas. My favorite thinking spot is in the shower.

I am a problem solver.

It’s my instinct to take a complex problem and simplify it into bite-sized chunks. Then I look for simple solutions to the complex problem.

I am a maker.

I love using my hands to make things. It is a beautiful feeling to hold a finished product, knowing that you made it with your very own hands.

I am a designer.

I am currently seeking opportunities to work full-time as a designer in a dynamic and innovative environment. Contact me at aralee93@gmail.com!
