About me

Iโ€™m a product designer with a foundation in visual storytelling and a focus on clarity, craft, and impact.

I got my start as a graphic designer at a global tech company, where a single PowerPoint redesign opened my eyes to product design.

Since then, Iโ€™ve led design for an early-stage wildfire risk platform, shifting the companyโ€™s vision from hardware to software. I love designing tools that help people feel more confident, prepared, or just a little less stressed.

Life outside Figma

This is how I slow down, notice the world, and stay connected to what matters to me. Most of these were done on hikes, road trips, or afternoons by the coast.
