Hi there, I'm Allyson (or Ally)!

I am currently a third-year student studying
Human Centered Design and Engineering at the University of Washington in my hometown of Seattle, WA!

I have a passion for designing products/technology that are inclusive, accessible, empathetic, visually appealing, as well as user-friendly. Specifically honing in on the empathy in design is a focus of mine. I want to design not just for people like me, but humans as a whole. Essentially- I want to create better user expereinces for everyone. I strive to become a diverse designer that can make the world a more inclusive place in anyway possible, big or small.

Thank you for taking the time today to learn about me and my work!

Other things I love…

If you ever see me alone, you will probably find me listening to music at full-blast with noise cancellation on. Music has always been a big part of my life as I played piano for over 10+ years. I love going into my own world with music. My favorite artists include Lana del Rey, Steve Lacey, Frank Ocean, and the 1975.

One my favorite things in the whole world is my dog named Mochi. She is a COVID puppy and is my best friend. She loves being lazy, eating her greenies, and sleeping all day long! I love going home to hangout with her and give her a bunch of pets.

A favorite activity of mine is spending time exploring the cities of Washington and taking long walks with my friends while doing it. One of my favorite cities that I visited recently is Bainbridge Island with my friends and the beautiful view coming back to Seattle from the ferry (taken from the ferry by me)!
