About Me
About Me
Artist Advocate
My approach is to put people first. I believe in protecting human and artist creativity.
Creating Connections
One of my greatest strengths is connecting the stories between research and solutions.
I always keep the “why?” in mind to create solutions that just make sense.
Creative Core
As the “creative kid” that spent their lunch breaks in the art room, my love for creativity and storytelling sparked my design journey early on.
Without losing sight of the big picture, I thrive on fine-tuning the smallest aspects of a design, knowing they can make the biggest difference. As a previous engineer, I know that the details matter.
