I'm a designer crafting simple and effective solutions for complex systems.

Currently, I’m wrapping up a contract at Color Group and freelancing, helping different product teams to build delightful user experiences.

After years of studying become a painter and fine artist, after a single “Intro to Web” class, I quickly became obsessed with all things web design, HCI, HCD, front end design and development.

Within 3 months I pivoted from a painter to obsessing over HCI , UI/UX, and Graphic Design!

Since then – I have worked with some really cool people, proudly designed Airfirst™, re-branded The VCC™, have more than 3 years of startup experience from seed to sale.

My goals are ever-evolving; I am always seeking to reduce my personal waste, carbon footprint, give back to my community, and increasing the time for life, love, and community.

If you can’t find me at my computer, I’m either drawing, horseback-riding, gardening, reading, biking, running, hiking, gaming, re-watching Lord of the Rings extended edition, or just enjoying a coffee at one of my favorite coffeeshops, Hayfields.
