I design complex high-stakes products where clarity, speed, and accuracy matter.
ABOUT ME
I am a Product Designer focused on products where usability directly impacts outcomes. I look for roles where I can help people solve real problems and make meaningful progress on important tasks. Throughout my career, I have balanced user needs with technical constraints, and moved ideas from concept to implementation.
With a background in design and software development, I am comfortable working across the spectrum of strategy and execution. I have designed in enterprise, defense, and healthcare environments where clarity, speed, and accuracy matters.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and a Bachelors in Computer Science (CS) from the Georgia Institute of Technology.

“My heart belongs to the details. I actually always found them to be more important than the big picture. Nothing works without details. They are everything, the baseline of quality.”
CAPABILITIES
My skill set spans the product design lifecycle, allowing me to step in where clarity and momentum are needed most. I work comfortably across product requirements, interaction design, prototyping, and developer collaboration, adjusting my depth based on the problem space rather than a fixed process. This range enables me to support teams in navigating complex constraints, aligning stakeholders, and delivering solutions that perform in real world conditions.

FUN
If you made it this far, you might be curious about what I do outside of work. I spend a lot of time on puzzles and have a pretty serious LEGO collection. I enjoy dystopian and psychological thriller books, and I like making things like sewn stuffed animals and crochet projects. I also play video games when I have downtime. I am usually covered in dog hair or a bit of glitter glue, and I will rarely turn down french fries. I am currently training for a marathon, so there is a good chance I will be walking during meetings to keep my legs moving.
