About me
I’m a product designer helping early stage startups turn complex problems into clear, intuitive solutions, most recently at Perch Sensing, a wildfire risk platform based in the Bay Area.
My background in branding and visual design means I care just as much about how things feel as how they function. I love working on small teams where I can wear a lot of hats, collaborate cross-functionally, and ship thoughtful products that meet people where they are.
When I’m not designing, I’m probably painting, playing cozy games, or catching low tide at the beach.
