I’ve always had the desire to make a positive impact on people and design provides me with the opportunity to do so. I enjoy the challenges of creative problem solving and developing empathy for end-users. I thrive in team environments that promote radical candor, empathy, continuous learning, and mentorship.
My most recent experience has been in designing mobile fintech applications, but I am interested in designing for complex systems and technical applications again.

Interests
I love learning about new tools and technology that can make the design process more efficient to open up more time for creative thinking and ideation. I do my best to stay up to date with design trends and guideline updates through articles and design blogs. I have primarily focused on mobile design over the past few years, but still enjoy designing for desktop experiences.
In my free time, I run an art studio in my town where I design vinyl stickers, keychains, enamel pins and more.
Hobbies
I probably have too many hobbies at this point, but I love to learn new things and constantly crave sunshine. I have a husky named Remy that loves going on adventures with me and two cats that like to run the house while Remy is out.
I have an art studio in town where I paint, create digital pieces, stickers, keychains, stationary, and more!
