MY DESIGN JOURNEY

Design is my way of connecting with people—starting with empathy and ending with solutions that make life just a little brighter. My psychology background lets me truly understand others, helping me see the world through their eyes. Inspired by art in every form, from creating music to building apps, I find joy in turning ideas into meaningful, human-centered experiences.

Hi, I’m Cathy Doss!

An aspiring Interaction Designer and recent UC San Diego graduate, where I majored in Cognitive Behavioral Neuroscience with a minor in Design. I create experiences at the intersection of art, psychology, and human connection.

Music is my inspiration.

It’s the art form I connect with most, both emotionally as a music psychologist and physically as a dancer. I’m deeply passionate about how sound shapes human behavior and experiences.


When I’m not designing, you can find me dancing, listening to music, exploring new foods, or (let’s be honest) spending way too much time on YouTube. I’m always looking to connect and collaborate, so feel free to reach out!
