Hello!
I’m Elysha, a designer based in the SF Bay Area 👩🏻💻
My Story
I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a passion for deconstructing complexity into tangible solutions. Currently at NASA/JPL, I collaborate with scientists and engineers to streamline their workflows and make aerospace and STEM topics more accessible to the public.
With expertise in UX methodologies, graphic design, and branding, I thrive at the intersection of technology, creativity, and real-world constraints. I think what drives my relentless curiosity of human challenges is a commitment to justice and a bit of optimism for the future. :)
I find deep fulfillment (and fun!) in coaching budding creatives to make their strengths more accessible to the world. Otherwise, I nurture my creative practice through exploring nature, caffeinated drinks, snacks, and subgenres in electronic music.
