About Me

I'm an Oregon-based designer, but I'm originally from the East Coast. I have a background in graphic design, which gives me the knowledge and skills to create meaningful experiences for users from concept to delivery. My illustration and typography knowledge has only strengthened my UX skill set making me a well-rounded designer for both digital and physical products. It is most rewarding to know I have made a positive impact on people’s lives because I care about how people feel.

One of my favorite hobbies – skateboarding, has unexpectedly helped me develop in my professional life. I've learned that falling does not equal failing, and that learning what not to do is sometimes more important than learning what to do correctly.

It's taught me that there is never just one way to approach a situation, that persistence is often more valuable than talent, and that small adjustments can produce wildly different results.
