Hi, I'm Arcadia!
Hi, I'm Arcadia!
I’m a recent graduate of Tufts University, where I studied Engineering Psychology and Music Engineering. My background blends product design, psychology, and creativity — which fuels my curiosity about how people interact with digital products.
I’ve always been creating — whether it’s music, illustrations, or interactive ideas — and I originally found product design through that creative lens. What made me stay was realizing the power design has to impact people’s lives in meaningful ways. The way something is designed can empower or exclude, uplift or frustrate — and I want to be part of shaping experiences that empower.
Whether it’s making tools more accessible, streamlining a task, or bringing warmth to a digital interaction, I’m passionate about solving real problems through thoughtful, inclusive design. I care deeply about designing experiences that feel intuitive and human — not just functional — and I’m especially drawn to work that helps people feel understood, supported, or just a little more in control.
Outside of design, you’ll usually find me experimenting with writing songs, sketching ideas, or finding inspiration in the small details of everyday life. I'm also an avid watercolor painter and songwriter, check out my artwork and music!
In my free time, I love to enjoy the outdoors, play music, and make art!
