Hi, I'm Mika! I'm a Master of Professional Studies student at Cornell University studying Information Science with concentrations in UX Design and Data Science.

After learning about UX design, I have been deliberate in my choices to work on projects that I believe are socially meaningful β€” such as my work with Cornell Social Media Lab, where I helped design a web-based learning tool for seniors to learn more about disinformation online.

My passion for design started in high school, where I enjoyed creating art and exploring different mediums like print-making, painting, digital animations, sculpture, and more!
