I'm from San Francisco, and I began my product design career 6 years ago. I'm collaborative, methodical, and growth-oriented.
I've worked with startups, design agencies, and Fortune 100 companies, leading the design process from end-to-end. I understand product strategy, agile, and front-end code, allowing me to build cross-functional partnerships and design pragmatic solutions.

I see design as the scientific method of business. Great design helps companies identify and validate the problem, then craft, test, and ship an elegant solution.
I don't spend time making overly descriptive personas or emotional journey maps about how users might feel.
I do focus more on market research, user interviews, prototyping, and testing to help companies build the right product in the right way.
I study business books, entrepreneurship podcasts, and sites like growth.design, so I work well with Product Teams and I can help turn high-level product strategies into pixel-level realities.
