About me
Designing the whole experience, not just the screen.
I’m a product designer who codes, which means I care just as much about a promising first sketch as the details that make a shipped interface accessible, resilient, and memorable. My practice blends research, systems thinking, visual craft, and close collaboration.
I’ve worked with small teams and mission-driven organizations to bring clarity to complicated ideas and build products with a distinct point of view.
