I’m a product designer from San Francisco with 10+ years of experience researching, designing, and building physical and digital experiences for global and local organizations.
I believe in design that is ethical, accessible, and thoughtful. I’m especially drawn to work that focuses on people: understanding what they need, creating systems that support them, and leaving room for learning, experimentation, and a bit of play. When people feel supported this way, they build trust with the products and services they use. This trust is what makes businesses grow, thrive, and stay resilient over time.
Throughout my career, I have designed in store systems for Starbucks, helped scale the customer experience at Postmates, and built civic tools for the City of San Francisco. Most recently, I have grown and evolved the design system at Zendesk.
My core expertise is in the intersection between design systems and service design, where I build components, patterns, and guidelines that help teams work with clarity and consistency. I spend a lot of time teaching, advising, and supporting the designers and engineers around me. Alongside this work, I’ve been exploring speculative design, Artificial Intelligence, and interactive storytelling through games and film.
Ethos
I care deeply about people.
Empowering and supporting others, whatever it may look like for each individual or group, is what drives me. Needs differ and great design honors that.
Whether it's a work relationship, a friendship, or just a warm hello, I aim to bring thoughtfulness, joy, and meaning into every interaction.
A little bit of silliness too sometimes.
Systems should serve, not overly constrain. Too much rigidity leads to obsolescence. Good systems should adapt to current needs and evolve with the people that use them.
I believe having the right answers is valuable. But being open, curious, and having the willingness to seek the right answer together matters more. I’m serious about documenting and sharing learnings so we can all build on each other’s progress.
Playing is not just for kids. Experimentation fuels learning, creativity, and joy. Whether I’m prototyping a new pattern or trying a different way of working, I believe design (and life) thrives when there’s room to explore, mess up, and discover something new.
