I design for humans

I’m a designer, strategic problem solver, and idea wrangler. I design tools and services to advance under-served populations using empathy, ideation, prototyping, and testing. When I’m not conducting design research or organizing UX Camps, you can find me at the dog park.

An expert in human-centered design, I can help you to build a sustainable strategy and implement it. From UX to Design Thinking, I can ensure you are connected to your customer’s needs by framing your challenge and testing and experimenting potential solutions.

As an event producer of User Experience events, I manage event staff and operations, sponsorship and marketing for UXCamp DC and UXCamp NYC.

Innovation Champion
