How can I help you?

I am a Product Designer with 4+ years of end-to-end experience designing digital products in complex, social-impact contexts.

I work closely with product managers, engineers, researchers, and stakeholders to translate user and business needs into thoughtful, accessible experiences. My work spans discovery, design, usability testing, iteration, and delivery, with a strong focus on evidence-based decision-making.

I blend creativity and strategy to craft data-backed solutions that serve and empower communities. I have designed B2B and SaaS products and services for public education, harm reduction, elderly care, mental health, post-incarceration welfare, gender-affirming care fundraising, and housing projects.
