About

Background | Let's Collaborate

I'm a product designer and Associate Creative Director focused on design systems, enterprise UI, and scalable Figma workflows — working hands-on at every stage while leading the teams and processes around the work.

I've led design across web, e-commerce, and mobile for national brands — personally architecting Figma design systems while directing designers and collaborating with product, UX, and engineering teams. Most effective building systems and interfaces that hold up at scale and support teams working in parallel.

Outside of client work, I use AI as a creative tool — primarily in visual storytelling and cover design — and that perspective increasingly shapes how I think about design tooling and creative workflows.
