Hey! I’m Kaylee :]
I’m a UX Designer from San Diego, CA. I’m currently attending UC Irvine studying Informatics with a specialization in HCI. In my free time you can find me bouldering, ranking new food places, or bugging my two cats.

Got to see my favorite type of jellyfish while on a West Coast roadtrip! Shot some cool footage of them too.
📍 Joshua Tree National Park
Went outdoor bouldering for the first time! An extremely humbling experience to say the least :)
📍 Joshua Tree National Park
Saw this huge marmot and got this silly picture of it. Fun fact, marmots bite!

I’ve been coming to this beach since I was a kid! Eating a burrito (gave it an 8.3 on Beli) after a quick run.
