I'm a systems thinker focused on solving complex technical challenges and designing functional, effective and elegant solutions that meet user needs. I care deeply about craftsmanship and have a keen interest in typography and creative coding.

I’m a Product Designer with 8+ years of experience designing end-to-end web and mobile apps in the B2C and B2B space. I spent the last 4 years working in climate-tech and most recently led the Energy Analytics and Developer Experience work for Arcadia’s Data Platform.

Prior to that, I designed and developed web apps, websites, web animations and crafted brands’ visual identities for a diverse range of clients and projects—including the IMF’s search engine and data visualizations with Development Seed.

I have a background in Architecture and Urban Planning, and previously worked for Davis Brody Bond as an Architectural Designer on the project for the National Museum of African American History & Culture. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, and drinking beer. I live in Washington, DC.
