About me

I didn’t set out to become a product designer. I started college thinking I’d become a dentist, but was quickly pulled toward technology, information, and how systems work. Studying information science alongside studio art led me into UX and product design, where logic, creativity, and real human needs naturally intersect.

For over 8 years, I’ve worked on enterprise platforms and large-scale products, designing internal tools, global payments systems, and customer-facing experiences in complex, high-stakes environments. I do my best work where problems are ambiguous and collaboration really matters, focusing on making sense of complexity and shaping clear, practical workflows that actually hold up in the real world.

Outside of work, I genuinely enjoy planning and organizing, travel, good food, long walks, and creative projects that let me build things from scratch. I’m motivated by thoughtful products and teams that value clarity, curiosity, and collaboration.
