Open to senior + staff roles

Hey there, I'm

a product designer!

I design products that work for everyone — not just the people the happy path was drawn for. Twelve years of shipping across ed-tech, insurance, and consumer apps, most of it spent making complex flows simpler and reachable by keyboard, screen reader, and low-vision users alike.

About

Nice to meet you.

I got my start at small creative agencies, designing and building websites by hand, before content management systems existed and before "UX" was even a job title.

A big part of that work was watching, observing, and listening to the people actually using what I built, and that's still at the core of how I design today. I work across the full UX and product design lifecycle: research, system design, and prototyping, through launch and iteration.

Outside of work, I like walking my dog through the woods, spending time with my family, and traveling to new places. I also love a good tea blend.
