To me, design is the perfect fusion of strategy, psychology, and creativity. I'm grateful for the opportunity to transform ideas into reality and take on big challenges. Inspired by the world around me, I’m driven to understand why people make decisions. Through my journey, I’ve learned to navigate and embrace the messiness of product environments, turning chaos into something beautiful, simple, and delightful. And I absolutely love what I do.

What to expect

I've developed a few core principles that I believe are essential for creating great work and functioning teams.

Sweat the details. Prototype everything.

I prototype early and often and set interfaces in motion. I highly prioritize what a product feels like to use, in addition to how it looks and functions.

When in doubt, map it out.

I meticulously map core flows to capture every edge case, error state, and key decisions. Engineers tend to appreciate these visualizations.

Go big, then scale back.

Whenever possible, I step back to craft a bold product vision that inspires the teams around me. It's easy to scale down, but you'll never know the full potential until you aim high.

Extreme ownership

...and adopting a "do it now" mentality ensures swift decisions and proactive problem-solving. No details are overlooked, keeping projects on track and delivering exceptional results.
