Over the last decade, I've collaborated with cross-functional teams to create human-centered products and services. My design practice combines product strategy, user research, and creative thinking to develop design solutions that meet business goals and all user needs.
I currently collaborate with a startup in the publishing industry, where I have the rare opportunity to combine my passion for digital and literature.
To help designers grow accessible design solutions, I share hand-curated resources on AY11-Toolbox. I currenlty live in Seattle, WA and I am a Door Hunter in my spare time.
I have 15 years of experience delivering successful cross-media projects for various industries, oftentimes from the ground up to the final product. I specialize in:
I run competitive analysis, UX audits, and usability testing data to dive deep into issues users encounter. This process is an opportunity to develop a better user experience that aligns with the business vision.
I use iterative design based on data and feedback to create or refine design products, and I collaborate with dev teams to deliver design specifications: user flows, interactive prototypes, or design systems.
I am passionate about understanding the users I'm designing for, and I continually strive to incorporate accessible components into my work. As an accessibility advocate, I share my insights to improve product outputs.

I'm always happy to discuss Design, hear about your next big idea, or just have a spirited debate about how The Good Place should have ended.
