About me

Who I am

Digital designer by day, muralist and percussionist by passion. I build products with the same rhythm and curiosity I bring to my life offline.

My specialty is untangling the messy stuff. Whether it’s a legacy system with years of technical debt or a high-stakes regulatory challenge, I’m the person teams call when they need to find a clear path forward. I don't just push pixels; I partner with product, engineering, and legal to define the strategy and scope that actually lets us ship something meaningful.

Principles

01

Ground in Trust

Trust isn't a feature; it's a foundation. Inclusive design isn't a 'nice-to-have.' It's how we prevent products from breaking for the people who need them most. I build products that feel safe and reliable for everyone as we scale.

02

Let Strategy Drive

The best solutions start upstream. Before screens or UI, there's the 'why.' I make sure we're solving the right business problem and that our design direction is fueled by real product strategy, not what's trendy or easy to mock up.

03

Solve for Scale

As a percussionist, I know that a solid rhythm allows everyone else to play their best. I apply that same logic to design systems. I don't build one-offs; I build patterns and frameworks that help the whole team move faster, stay consistent, and spend less time fighting with components and more time solving big problems.

04

Bias Towards Action

When things are ambiguous, I'd rather learn by doing. Rapid validation over endless theorizing. Get a prototype in front of a human, see where it breaks, refine it. Progress beats perfection.

What Drives Me

I’ve spent 10+ years turning complex, 'noisy' challenges into quiet, clear solutions. If you’re looking for a design leader to help find the rhythm in your next big project, let’s talk.
