I'm a product designer who thrives in the messy, exciting space where complex problems meet simple solutions. My path here wasn't traditional—I started as a computer engineer, became a product manager, and eventually found my home in design. This multi-disciplinary background gives me a unique perspective: I can speak technically, think strategically, and design with deep empathy.

My engineering roots give me a practical edge — I design what can actually be built and hold my own in technical conversations with devs. My PM experience taught me how to plan and build products and communicate design decisions in terms that stakeholders understand. But what really drives me is the details of design itself: understanding users, solving their problems, and creating experiences that just plain work!

I've spent the last few years working at startups, wearing many hats and building everything from AI-powered tools that save millions in legal fees to design systems from scratch. I love the challenge of ambiguous projects where I can shape both the product vision and the user experience. Whether I'm conducting user research, prototyping new features, or mentoring other designers, I'm happiest when I'm solving real problems for real people :)

Outside of work, I'm pretty crafty—I love crochet, knitting, and other creative hobbies. There's something about working with your hands that keeps the creative energy flowing. I'd love to bring all my knowledge to a company that truly values design and has the team structure to support great work. If that sounds like your organization, I'd love to hear from you.
