Ive also integrated AI tools into my arsenal to make ideation and data analysis much more efficient.

Stuff I love working on:

Design System Development

I've had a lot of experience with building and managing component libraries, particularly in Figma. I enjoy the challenge of creating robust design assets that are flexible, lean, and easy to use.

UX Strategy

It's satisfying to learn how the product works on a deep level, gathering juicy user research, and going above and beyond to meet our business goals.

Motion & Interaction Design

I have a degree in animation; give me a chance to flex that particular skillset and you won't be disappointed.

Process Flows

Good planning is foundational to my design process. Process flows are my favorite tool to avoid bottlenecks and ensure a seamless handoff.

Instructional Content Design

I enjoy taking an information-dense topic and making it easier to understand in an engaging, digestible format. Bonus points if I'm allowed to make it fun.

Team Building & Talent Development

I have a lot of fun teaching junior designers. Need someone to run a Figma workshop or give your newbies some onboarding training? I'd be more than happy to take the lead!
