If there's anything you should know about me, it's that I am an ally to my users. I put a lot of attention and respect into everything I create, and when I'm passionate about something, you can trust that I'll design a thoughtful solution for it.
Useful. Considered. Beautiful. Well made.
These are the core design values I live by, and I aim to incorporate them into everything I create. I genuinely enjoy finding beautiful solutions to real problems—it’s at the heart of what I do. I like thinking big and working fast while also focusing on being thoughtful and holistic. I pay attention to long-term impact, sustainability, and collaboration across different teams.
I’m always improving, growing, and executing to the highest standard possible. At the same time, I want my efforts to contribute to a larger mission—something meaningful that is connected to improving the world and leaving it better than when I began.
