With over 8 years of experience across start-ups, not-for-profits, ​government, and corporates, I’ve embraced being a generalist—​something I believe every great product designer should be.

I thrive in ambiguity, comfortable being thrown into any situation and ​jumping into any stage of the process with ease.


→ I believe in functional design that is led by strategy, backed by ​research and brought to life with delightful details.

→ I love finding that sweet spot at the intersection of human needs, ​business viability and technical feasibility.

→ I’ve often heard that my greatest strength is the energy and alignment ​I bring to teams.


At my core, I'm a people person and problem solver, passionate about ​designing solutions that help people. Ultimately, I love working with ​smart people on interesting projects that do good.
