Hello!

I'm a product & user experience designer based in Washington, D.C. Over the last few years, I've worked with companies across a range of industries, growth stages, and cycles.

I believe in design as a tool for communication. It helps us tell and hear stories, understand and express ideas, and connect with individuals and groups. Design is my chosen tool to achieve meaningful change & connection.

I am a skilled collector of hobbies and pastimes, so when I'm off the clock, you'll find me doing anything and everything! Cooking, baking, playing instruments, a late-night concert, running, learning a language, reading, thrifting, and maybe a free event in the city...and those are my plans for just next Saturday!
