About me

I’m a product designer who cares deeply about building thoughtful experiences for real people. My work is grounded in curiosity, collaboration, and a belief that the best products come from deeply understanding both the humans using them and the teams creating them.

I thrive in environments that balance intentional collaboration with focused time for deep thinking, systems building, and refining craft. As an individual contributor, I bring a strategic mindset, strong product thinking, and a highly collaborative approach to solving complex problems. I value honesty, connection, and curiosity, and I do my best work on teams where people genuinely care about one another.

Outside of design, I’m deeply rooted in family life. My family and dog mean everything to me. I live in Colorado, where you’ll usually find me trail running, skiing, reading sci-fi and fantasy novels, or listening to nostalgic pop-punk music. I’m drawn to a playful, minimalist lifestyle and believe creativity is fueled by making space for joy, movement, and connection.

As a leader and teammate, I care about creating environments where people feel supported, challenged, and genuinely seen. I believe the strongest teams are built on trust, empathy, direct communication, and authentic human connection.
