About me

Thanks for stopping by! I'm a full-stack designer who excels at aligning product strategy and turning ideas into reality. I enjoy mentoring designers and engineers, and I thrive on collaborating with cross-functional teams to launch products people love.
When I'm not at my computer, I love to paint, read, and explore new places. This photo is from an alleyway in Morocco—one of my favorite trips!
