Over 13 years, I've been a product designer for complex domains including AI, healthcare, and security. I explore ambiguous problems with deep research and collaboration to find clarity for users and organizations.

I discovered human-centered design during my engineering program and fell in love with generative research and iterating over my own prototypes with user feedback.

I'm based in the SF Bay Area and happy to provide a portfolio if you share a little bit about what you're looking for.

When I'm not staring at screens, I enjoy making things with my hands like knitting, ceramics, and miniatures, or volunteering. I've worked with organizations supporting homeless children, mental health, and FIRST robotics. My dog Fable supervises nearby, alerting me to potentially evil mail, and avoiding photographs for ig.

Thanks to Paul Torres for the illustration of me (at the top), and I made the little corgi one (at the bottom) at a fun riso workshop.
