About

I've always loved creating digital things. One of my earliest memories is creating wallpapers on my dad's Windows 3.1 Toshiba laptop. In my teenage years, I created flash websites, video game mods and 3D animations.

I graduated with a masters degree in Architecture + Civil Engineering. I managed public construction projects at my first job, but I kept creating infographics, websites and comics as passion projects in my free time.

I got laid off in the aftermath of the 2008 recession, and my Inception infographic went viral shortly after. I decided to switch careers.

I got my foot in the UX door at Publicis.Sapient, where I worked initially as a visual designer creating data visualizations for the world's biggest financial companies.

At E*TRADE, I continued to hone my skills: leading design on the Stock Plan platform and supporting its acquisition by Morgan Stanley.

I currently lead the design practice at Focused, helping clients increase revenue and efficiency by designing better AI agent experiences.

Aside from design, I enjoy playing board games and staying physically active. My current dream is to visit all the US National Parks.
