I like to bring together design, strategy, and curiosity. With roots in computer science and over 6 years in graphic design, I’ve spent the last few years shaping products for startups while also diving deep into the business side of things. Currently pursuing human-centered design at the University of Maryland, College Park.

Startups have been my learning ground, each one teaching me something new about how companies operate and how design can help them grow. My work blends an eye for craft with a drive to improve systems, experiences, and outcomes.

Community plays a big role in my life. I’ve spent years organizing and designing for TEDx, and I continue to volunteer whenever I can. Outside of work, I’m usually behind a camera doing videography, gaming, or discovering new music.

And then another project.
And then a whole path.
