About me
I'm a Principal Product Designer with 14+ years of experience building impactful products across healthcare, B2B SaaS, education, and consumer services. I transform complex business challenges into simple and engaging solutions that improve people's lives.
Currently, I lead design at Providence Digital Innovation Group, where I'm developing AI-powered healthcare solutions. Previously, I've shaped product experiences at Frame, Elation Health, Lambda School, and Uber.
My background in business development and marketing gives me a unique edge. I approach every project with both user empathy and strategic thinking, ensuring the products I build not only solve user problems, but also achieve business goals.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me illustrating short stories or exploring the East Bay with my family and our dog Megatron 🐾
Education: Master of Interaction Design (California College of the Arts), M.A. Sociology, B.A. Ethnic Studies and Human Biology (Stanford University)
