committed to

joyful design

experiences

With a broad and vibrant background in both design and non-design related roles, I have honed my skills in various design software such as Figma, Sketch, and the Adobe product suite, and have a strong understanding of design principles and user experience. I have worked on a wide range of projects, from designing government enterprise systems and websites to rebranding and redesigning corporate websites. I am a creative problem solver and enjoy the challenge of finding unique solutions to design challenges. In my free time, I enjoy drawing/painting, walking my dog Emaline, and the Japanese art of "forest bathing", Shinrin-yoku.

What i do

Consulting

With several years of experience in art, design, and systems thinking, I can help companies create innovative design solutions, improve the design process and stimulate joy. I am a perfect fit for companies that prioritize the intersection of tech, design, and curiosity.

Community Support

I genuinely believe in the power and democracy of design. I always strive to advocate for design to have a seat at the table, and actively participate in communities that are dedicated to providing resources, inspiration, and professional guidance for designers of all disciplines and backgrounds.

UI/UX Design

While knowledgeable in all areas of product design, I am strongest in delivering thoughtful, user-centered, and intuitive visual designs. With a knack for fusing business requirements with user empathy, I help companies create applications that are inventive and functional.

Photography

“What the photograph reproduces to infinity has occurred only once: the photograph mechanically repeats what could never be repeated existentially.”

-- Roland Barthes
