Enjoying my eighth year riding the creative wave.
I craft stories across mediums to inspire and connect.

Bio

My path began as a full-stack designer and creative technologist. Looking back, it maps naturally onto the double diamond.

In the first diverge, I built breadth across UI/UX, branding, typography, motion, print, games, art direction, and digital art, during my time at Parsons.

That range taught me how disciplines inform one another, and it led me to converge on tech products and services, where design decisions ship and scale.

In the second diverge, I stepped into the roles that surround design. I tasted what it feels like to be a product manager, an HCI researcher, and a front-end engineer, and each role deepened my understanding of how products get built.

The final converge brought me back to design with conviction. It is where I do my best work, and it remains the work I love most.
