A few things that set me apart

I do my best working across the traditional boundaries of design, product, and engineering. I like owning problems end-to-end, and believe that teams do better when constraints, details, and empathy are shared by everyone.

As a designer, I love to turn messy, frustrating things into tools and systems that people can trust, value, and actually enjoy using.

As an urban studies geek, I'm drawn to the way structures shape behavior, access, and possibility. I think of software as the most important built environment we have today: something we shape, and something that quietly shapes us back.

Before designing software, I was already designing and tinkering in many ways. Growing up, I modified RC cars, built my own Stratocaster, made posters, and wrote and produced music.
