Growing up, I was always finding ways to make money. From freelance illustration to a really sketchy loan operation, I learned a great deal through the multi-faceted experience of setting up and running a business. I realized from my experiences in business classes and competitions, that I wanted to do more than make slide decks, spreadsheets, and promises.

I wanted to make ideas tangible.

After a decade long stint as a freelance illustrator and experiencing creative burnout, I discovered UX design and fell down the rabbit hole in my second year of undergrad. While many artists seek to break the constraints of their mediums, I found creative liberation in the constraints of UX design. The problem statements behind UX solutions gave my work purpose, and within that purpose I rediscovered what it felt like to be passionate again.

Solving a tough business case through design — whether through product, service, or process — came naturally to me and I'm always excited to collaborate on new projects and would love to hear from you. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions!
