About

I'm a Senior Product Designer and Design Engineer with 10+ years designing tools for complex workflows. I turn product requirements into interfaces, build shared design systems, and contribute front-end code. Working through both design and implementation helps me carry decisions from the first prototype into the product.

At Deloitte, I design AI-assisted tools for public-sector clients and contribute production interface code. That work includes helping people review generated content and make decisions with the information in front of them.

A born-and-raised Californian based in Oakland, I spend most of my free time outdoors: hiking, climbing, and surfing the coast, camera in hand whenever I can. I cook a lot at home, and chase creative projects outside of product work: photography, making things with my hands, and whatever else scratches the itch to build something that isn't software.

Currently open to: Design consulting, part-time roles, speaking, and mentoring.
