I'm drawn to problems that take real work to untangle: dense financial data, complex regulated processes, and AI that people need to trust. Translating that into clear, helpful designs is my favorite part of the work.
Over 9+ years, I've designed enterprise and fintech products, including AI-assisted and agentic workflows, risk dashboards, and tools for traders and lenders. My approach is consistent: understand how people actually work, remove what's getting in their way, and be transparent about what the system is doing and where the data comes from. I do my best work on teams that put real care into what they build and stay close to their users. I partner closely with product and engineering leads to shape direction, especially early, when problems are still ambiguous.
Beyond my own work, I help build design culture. At Citi, I led company-wide working sessions for nearly two years to shape our design system, and used that feedback to write its usage documentation. Day to day, I run design critiques and work with designers one-on-one to talk through ideas, give feedback, and help them move their work forward. Before that, I mentored career changers as a UX teaching assistant at General Assembly.
My background is in visual art, which gave me an eye for detail. It shows up in design reviews and testing, where I'm usually the one who catches small gaps between the design and what actually gets built.
Outside of work, I'm a casual birder who relies on the Merlin app to identify calls, and I spend a lot of time on walks with my dog, Topsy.
