Product Designer & Creative Director with experience designing for impact
I’m a strategic, multi-disciplinary product designer with a track record of launching new business initiatives, scaling global experiences, and shaping product vision through storytelling and systems thinking.
Over the past four years at Netflix, I’ve led design across high-stakes initiatives, driven Monetization strategies to grow our member base, launched a Games platform to support a company-defining bet, and co-created a cross-company IP strategy to unlock $1B in untapped value.
Previously at Microsoft, I led the design of time-management features used by hundreds of millions and co-invented a new interaction paradigm for collaborative productivity, earning multiple patents along the way. Prior to that, I built a data collection app for field researchers at Drexel and collaborated with founders and companies in tech and entertainment at Hamster Lab to create impactful brand identities, logos, and presentation materials.
With degrees in Computer Science and Digital Media, I bring a cross-disciplinary mindset to design, blending data, storytelling, and human-centered research to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
At the heart of my design practice is a pursuit of excellence in craft. I draw my inspiration from the natural world, photography, community, and the curiosity sparked by travel and discovery, each informing how I lead, build, and imagine new possibilities.

I lead with intention and care
I lead with intention and care
I design with purpose, considering not just how things look, but how they work, how they feel, and who they serve.
I seek out challenges and I thrive in complex, undefined spaces. To me, ambiguity is exciting, I see it as an invitation to innovate.
