I’m a Product Designer with 7+ years of design experience (full-time, part-time, and freelance) and a Master’s in HCI from Purdue University.
From designing VR and simulations at Envision Center, to leading 0-to-1 B2B product launches at Elements Connect, I have a track record of mastering complex domains. I specialize in transforming intricate technical requirements into seamless user experience, building design systems, advocating for the customer, and leveraging AI-augmented workflows to scale design impact alongside PMs and engineering teams.
my path into design.
Driven by logic. Guided by empathy.
Growing up in the Midwest, I was the kid who wanted to know how the gears turned and how the pieces fit. I followed that curiosity toward the "how" of things, only to realize that the most important part of any system is the person at the center of it.
In college, the "click" happened: I realized that the best products aren't just technical marvels; they are human solutions. I transitioned into UX and Product Design to bridge the gap between complex systems and the people who use them. Design serves as a way to bring both sides together: the part of me that loves systems and structure, and the part that cares deeply about people having a kinder, clearer experience.
As a Product Designer, I combine my natural instinct for systems and structure with a deep commitment to the user experience. I use my innate love for structure to solve complex problems, ensuring that every digital experience I create is both functionally robust and intuitive for humans.
my design process.
I believe great design is a repeatable process—research, clear hypotheses, rapid prototypes, and measured iteration—not just a look. I pair generative-AI exploration with system-driven refinement to ship work that communicates clearly, respects constraints, and creates lasting value.
01
Design Strategy
Every project begins by pinpointing real value and matching it to a market need. From there, a focused roadmap takes shape, design principles emerge, and user journeys flow—until the product unfolds as a coherent, branded experience people naturally choose and trust.
02
User-Centered Design
Grounded in user insight, I align design with business goals, shape concepts that fit real technical limits, and keep teams in sync through clear communication. An eye for detail and a habit of continuous learning ensure each release ships crisp, build-ready, and ready to evolve.
03
Iteration & Innovation
I pair AI-assisted exploration with disciplined iteration—generate options, validate, and polish—turning briefs into maintainable, user-centered interfaces at speed.
04
Rapid Prototyping
I turn business metrics into design moves that slot cleanly into the larger system and deliver quick wins. Craft outside the screen keeps ideas fresh, and clear storytelling rallies teams so those ideas ship and perform.
