About Me

A worksession with three team members collaborating in a conference room.

At Work

I like to help make complex decisions feel easier to understand. It's hard to design for a system we can not see. Working with cross-disciplinary teams has helped me zoom in and out.

At Home

I like to bake, draw, and customize shoes to get away from screens. This helps me recharge and spark creativity by forcing me to be completely present.

At Play

Our rescue dog Duffy keeps us active. We like to throw the frisbee and take weekend hikes in one of our local parks.
