Nice to meet you.

I'm a born-and-raised New Yorker with a West Coast soul. After studying Visual Studies and Creative Writing at the University of Pennsylvania, I moved westward to apply empathy and understanding to creative problem-solving.

​I'm currently the Head of Design & Creative at Maven Technologies, where I work on design and brand challenges related to digital selling experiences and customer-relationship management.

My favorite aspect of design is need-finding and creating experiences that get people to where they want to go as quickly as possible. While most of my work is digital, I love when I can be pushed outside of the screen and come up with solutions that aren't pixel-based.

In my spare time, you'll find me working on DIY projects, trying to cuddle my aloof dog, running at my own pace, and thrifting sweaters 3 sizes too big for me. I occasionally moonlight as a cardio kickboxing instructor and an amateur carver of stamps and wood.

I play by a few simple rules.

Embrace child-like wonder.

​I'm not afraid to use imagination, curiosity, and play to discover unique approaches to problems.

Choose empathy, always.

I'm an observer through and through, and I value listening and understanding as a way to build connection in my work.​

Create with intention.

I will not simply add to the noise. I will produce quality work that helps people be happier and healthier.

Tell truthful stories.

I will represent narratives with transparent data rather than use data to manipulate and trap people.​​

Be a force for good.

In whatever I do, I wish to be a motivating force—one that will empower real, positive change.
