With over 20 years of experience designing for Fortune 500 companies and mid-sized startups, I deliver designs that users love while also delivering measurable business results. I bring innovation, enthusiasm, and astute attention to detail to product design practices. I also hold two US patents for design innovation while at Disney.

Throughout my career, I have supported these global brands:

Kip Martin, Product Design Lead

 

Ultimately, I strive to harness design’s ability to affect behavior, push technology’s boundaries, and affect a business’ bottom line.

PHILANThROPY WORK

I’ve participated in several “NAMI Walks” for mental health awareness and completed two olympic triathlons helping raise thousands of dollars for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

For a fun side project, I founded Cocktails for Causes throwing an upscale fundraiser event series raising over $20,000 for Puerto Rico hurricane relief and after school programs for at risk youth in the housing projects in Watts, Los Angeles.
