I’ve learned that good design happens when you balance business goals, user needs, and technical constraints without losing sight of the folks that you’re building for and building alongside.
For over fifteen years, I’ve partnered with businesses, startups, and nonprofits across hospitality, fintech, civic tech, and enterprise software. Whether it’s discovery research, detailed UI systems, or design strategy consulting, I help clients move from uncertainty to clarity and confidence.
I work collaboratively, ask thoughtful questions, and bring steady guidance from leading design across varied teams and organizational structures. I prioritize aligning stakeholders, mentoring designers, and delivering work that serves both business goals and user needs.
I was raised on the salty shores of Cape Cod, grew roots in forested Portland, and currently reside in Oregon’s Emerald City with my partner Ian and dog Lu.
