How I Reduced Navigation Time by Over 40% for UC Berkeley's EECS Faculty Page
In late 2024, the UC Berkeley EECS website underwent a rebrand. What began as a simple aesthetic update evolved into an effort to improve clarity, usability, and information hierarchy for 100,000+ annual faculty homepage visitors.

How We Bridged the Gap Between Food Nostalgia & the Present with ReminiSense
In 3 days at Figma's national designathon, my team and I created ReminiSense- a speculative smart spoon that lets users vividly re-experience cherished food memories using their instant recall superpower.

AI influenced a 166% increase in subscribers
Sellers didn’t all have pictures for their business, first time buyers didn’t know how to navigate the site nor know what they wanted, and SMBmarket wanted my team to streamline this approach.
Why "Nanci with an eye (i)"?
It's more than just a way to clarify my name, it’s a connection to my heritage.
I’m a student at UC Berkeley majoring in Cognitive Science and pursuing the Certificate of Design, and I believe that effective design starts with a deep understanding of people.
Growing up in Lancaster, a small town in Southern California, I saw firsthand how limited accessibility and resources can impact a community, fueling my passion for creating meaningful, inclusive experiences.

Dork Diaries me!
