About

I'm motivated to create digital experiences that have a positive human impact.

I’m a product designer and leader with a drive to create engaging experiences that have a meaningful impact. My work experience spans agency consulting, corporate, and startup environments, where I’ve been involved in all stages of the product development lifecycle, including strategy, research, ideation, UX/UI design, prototyping, QA, and systems design.

 

Currently, I’m a product design lead at Upwork for the Growth team, where we transform how independent talent find economic opportunities so they can have better lives. I also serve as a design mentor at ADPList and Mento Design Academy, where I meet with designers/aspiring designers who are looking for 1:1 help in all things UX and product design.

 

Before joining the tech world, I ran a booking & promotions company, Calculated Scene, managing tours and promotional campaigns for musicians.

 

When not sketching or staring at screens, I enjoy live music, hiking, and getting lost in new surroundings.
