Hello! I’m glad you’re here.

I am a Design Researcher, Anthropologist, Facilitator, and Human-Centered Designer constantly asking questions and learning new things. From crafting Rube Goldberg machines as a kid, to diving into Human-Centered Design at Northwestern, to tackling complex computing at IBM, to pursuing graduate study in Anthropology + Design, I never stop seeking the unknown. I thrive in complex spaces, but uncovering interpersonal connection and delight in experiences is what really brings me joy in my work. It is my goal to continue to feed this desire throughout my personal and professional life by using design as a tool to connect people and uncover ideas.

In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, baking breakfast pastries, napping with my dog, walking around the city, and traveling.
