Design approach
My design approach is personalized and adaptable, working closely with product leaders, technical partners and other key team members. I utilize an evidence driven design approach, drawing on both generative research, secondary research and any available data to deliver designs with high confidence.
My work spans multiple service based industries including healthcare, fintech, emerging technologies (AI, crypto, digital identity). I’m passionate about innovating intentionally in the industries that need it the most.
About
I studied Neuroscience and Physiology at UC San Diego, building on a lifelong interest in biology and health sciences. After graduating I moved to the Arizona desert to start my medical training at A.T. Still University School of Osteopathic Medicine. After realizing that being a physician wasn’t where I could use my skillset best, I began to build my career as a product designer.
Its been rewarding to work with organizations and people that I believe in, who are passionate about making changes to systems that have been broken for a long time.
Away from my desk, I like to play with different kinds of movement (aerial silks, yoga, dancing), and spend as much time as I can outdoors (rock climbing, hiking, trail running).
