As A Designer I...

🤝  Create Solutions for Real People

I take the time to understand the end user and build genuine relationships to truly empathize with their problems. This allows me to design meaningful, effective solutions that improve their experience. It’s about being both a great designer and a thoughtful human.

🌱  Improve Lives

I aim to leave everything better than I found it—whether that’s through creating products that simplify life for users or uplifting my team by sharing knowledge and energy. As an Illuminator, I lead by example and help those around me shine.

🛠️  Own Every Step of My Process

I never pass the buck. I take full ownership of my design process—from discovery to delivery—and find creative ways to solve problems, even if it means reshaping square pegs to fit round holes. I bring urgency and grit to every challenge.

🤖  Embrace New Technology

I joined this industry because it’s always evolving. I dedicate time daily to learning the tools and technologies that shape our work. Curiosity and adaptability drive me.
