I've been designing for over a decade. Stemming from a background in fine-art, design, and photography, I now solve complex problems for the health & human space.

I graduated with a BFA from the University of Wisconsin — Milwaukee in 2011. Early in my career, I gravitated towards the flexibility of digital interaction, which later translated into product design, specializing in both effective strategy and simplified design languages. I aim to merge both business initiatives and empathetic experiences.

I've worked in both enterprise and consumer spaces, with a passion for mobile interfaces, motion, and design systems. I find the most enjoyment in collaborative areas that are challenging yet humble.

You can find my work and experience lingering on the internet at sites such as Dribbble and LinkedIn. Take a look at my collaboration blog with other women in design.
