Hey

I’m a designer and creative director with 15+ years of experience spanning product design, brand systems, and storytelling. I specialize in turning complex systems into clear, intuitive experiences—shaped by narrative, rigor, and collaboration.

My work lives at the intersection of design, technology, and culture—bridging strategy and craft across industries like AI, retail, and healthcare. I’m most at home in the ambiguity of early-stage programs, where ideas need framing, teams need alignment, and the future needs a point of view.
