About

I’m a product designer who holds distinct visual arts and graphics design expertise.

With over 8 years of experience, I have worked on a wide range of products from aviation navigation tools to ad-serving applications. While I put together many professional tools, I maintain a strong visual design repository that helps me take a product—and brand to the next level.

Recently, I’ve been delivering multi-layered financial data to accountants and providing the control interface for data integration within the ad tech industry.
