A Bay Area native, I grew up in Palo Alto, where I developed a passion for design and the outdoors. After studying Industrial Design at RISD with additional coursework at MIT and Brown University, I gained experience in gallery, toy, and visual design before joining Smart Design.

As an Interaction Designer at Smart Design, I've worked on diverse projects, from co-designing with teens and parents for Meta, to shaping future Pixel device ecosystem experiences, and designing a traffic management platform. I've also contributed to the design community by guest critiquing at University of Connecticut and Brown University, writing about interaction design, and hosting design talks.
