A lead product designer with expertise in the strategy, research, design, and execution of complex digital experiences and a focus on inclusive principles and robust design systems. I thrive in environments where I can use my diverse design background to bring innovation, optimization, and thoughtful human-centered design solutions to each step of the product design life cycle from running workshops and conducting user research to crafting complex user journeys and delivering high-quality assets for production.
I’m always on the lookout for exciting, creative projects—whether it’s crafting thoughtful designs, brainstorming bold app ideas, or even tackling home renovations.
Most days, you’ll find me pushing Figma’s boundaries with fresh creative experiments, painting to a soundtrack of electronic beats, or exploring the world with my favorite people, soaking up inspiration everywhere I go.
Led UX research and design for complex B2B SaaS tools, created a design system to unify products, and built an accessibility strategy from the ground up. I also worked with product and engineering teams to develop reusable, user-friendly design patterns.
Launched Acquia’s accessible design strategy, setting a new standard for prioritizing inclusive design at every stage of the PDLC. Led and co-published our first-ever accessibility conformance report, elevating the topic of accessibility, securing increased resources for auditing additional products, and directly influencing the inclusion of accessibility as one of the top three company-wide priorities in 2024.
Built and maintained a design system for the product, website, and marketing materials. I created wireframes and prototypes for theater- and artist-facing interfaces, supporting the organization’s mission to connect local theater artists with directors and opportunities.
See dates of employment. This is really just to prove that I DID, in fact, move to Chicago for a new job in the worst possible month in modern history.
Supported graphic, architectural, interior, and urban design projects through all phases, from concept to construction. My role included generating ideas, creating technical drawings, leading client presentations, and coordinating communication between clients and teams.
Conducted research on the future of cities and urban landscapes, exploring the impact of autonomous vehicles, eCommerce, and emerging technologies.
Collaborated with developers and the client support team to build, maintain, and enhance an online summer camp management system used by camps worldwide.
