10 years experience designing SaaS, B2B, & enterprise software
I’m a Product Designer with a passion for end-to-end design, specializing in translating complex problems into intuitive, user-centered experiences. I have experience creating design systems at small startups, designing for scale in large enterprises, & designing for accessibility in companies of any size. Outside of work, I am an animal lover & own a cat named Kitty Meow. I enjoy overcast weather, cartoons, & listening to music. In addition to that, I excel at overthinking & small talk.
