About
Hey, I’m Renae!
I'm a second year studying product design at USC's Iovine and Young Academy. Whether it's shaping an AI shopping assistant or prototyping Raspberry Pi-computed wings from scratch, I love diving into the unfamiliar, learning quickly, and creating work that’s bold, human, and delightful.

I’ve been tinkering since day one.
I’ve been building for as long as I can remember—starting with Legos on the floor and now with products, systems, and experiences. Creativity has always been my foundation, and that instinct to explore, assemble, and reimagine continues to drive how I approach design and innovation today.
