About me

I am a Lead Product Designer who enjoys making complex things feel simpler. Throughout my career, I have worked across web and mobile products, often stepping into problems where the experience is difficult to navigate, the workflow is complicated, or the needs of users and the business are not aligned.

I care about the details, but I also care about the bigger picture. Good design is not just about how something looks. It is about understanding users, asking the right questions, and making informed decisions.

The best products I have worked on have come from close collaboration with stakeholders, engineers, product managers, and other designers. I enjoy those conversations, figuring things out together, and those moments when a complicated problem starts to become clear.

When I am not designing digital products, I am making something with my hands. Certified arts and crafts nerd here: painting with acrylics and oils, crocheting amigurumi animals, sewing, making jewelry.
