About

Hi there! 👋 I’ve spent the last 14 years working at industry-leading companies like Google (Gmail), Airbnb, YouTube, and Slack, as well as partnering with startups—two of which I helped lead to acquisition. In that time, I've designed a wide range of products, from a brand new version of Gmail to applications for TV, purchase order platforms to largest source of academic papers in the world, and have accumulated a plethora of techniques and methodologies for approaching design problems in any environment.

I love working with people who are excited to up-level their craft in the field – whether that means growing into more senior design roles or transitioning into design for the first time. I can help you tackle the nuts and bolts of design: like brainstorming and organizing ideas, visual and interface design skills and best practices, telling compelling stories, working smoothly with other functions, and most importantly, developing confidence and conviction around your own ideas.

When we work together, my goal is to make you feel supported and empowered. I like to reflect on your strengths and areas you want to grow, understand the challenges you face, and then create tailored exercises or practices to address them. I am happy to review work and provide honest, constructive, and actionable feedback in a space where you can trust I’m 100% in your corner to succeed. You will walk away from our sessions with practical advice specific to what you're dealing with.

I learned UX design on the job through great mentorship from many, and I believe its the only way to rapidly improve in this ambiguous and multi-faceted role. I look forward to working with you!
