About
I believe that design is not only about aesthetics, but also about accessibility, usability, and social impact. I strive to work within a collaborative design process centering on empathy and having a deep understanding of diverse user experiences. As a designer I aim to design products and services that are not only functional and delightful, but also respectful and inclusive of the diversity of human values, cultures, and abilities.
