Don’t worry about the pronunciation — I care more about clarity where it counts. Like in your product.

My unconventional educational path—self-directed learning, early high school exit, and a film school pivot—taught me adaptability, initiative, and the ability to learn outside traditional systems. That perspective has shaped the way I approach problem-solving and collaboration in my career.

My background

For nearly a decade, I’ve worked with cross-functional teams to create products that reduce friction, build trust, and help people take action with confidence.

I draw on both qualitative and quantitative data to build empathy and understand user mindsets—designing experiences that are clear and compassionate.

I’m a writer at heart, but I know no one opens an app just to read (unless it’s Kindle). Great content design isn’t about more words—it’s about making the right words work harder. If I’m doing my job well, I’m writing less, not more.

TL;DR: I help users get sh*t done.

Fun fact

A few years ago, I wrote a comedy pilot loosely based on my experience being homeschooled that made it into the second round at the Austin Film Festival, so I’m basically famous. Please respect my privacy. 😎
