About me:
I took an unconventional path to get here β€” five years in the classroom, then a pivot into UX design, and somehow ended up leading digital transformation at a financial institution. Turns out teaching and design have more in common than people think. Both are about making complex things feel simple.

Since then I've grown well beyond the designer title. I lead platform strategy, drive executive decisions with data, and build digital experiences that actually move the needle. I'm a little bit designer, a little bit product manager, and a lot of someone who gets things done.

If you're building something and need someone who thinks differently β€” let's connect.
Who I'd like to meet:
Bold organizations who aren't afraid to do things differently. Leaders who value design thinking as a business strategy. Teams who are hungry to win.
