Once upon a time, I grew up as a big brain baby (literally a huge head) in Seattle, WA. 18 years later, I flew to Notre Dame to earn a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. I worked as an engineer for a few years and felt something was missing in my day to day.

​

My shift to UX happened when I realized that I felt too separated from the people I wanted to help. I wanted to solve problems for people, not personas. 

 

Now, I enjoy designing intuitive experiences for people. I like working with others to solve complex problems. You’ll often find me leading projects where I need to balance technical restraints and business objectives. In my free time, you might find me taking pictures, woodworking, making music, or playing with my pup, Einstein.
