Shaping meaningful product experiences from authentic user feedback.
Hi, I'm Ariana! I'm an Applied Computing and Business Analytics and AI undergraduate at the University of Washington. I hope to leverage my skills to create impactful solutions that address human needs.
Right now, I'm a product manager for a company that specializes in developing innovative software solutions. This isn't actually true but I'm manifesting it.
In my free time, I love learning languages, reading, playing piano, and exploring new cafes. I'm also an active officer in my university's women in tech organizations.
