I tell stories through my designs.

Stories that focus on experiences, strategy, change, visuals, humans, and humor. 

Words repeated across my portfolio (for now)

Strategy: 4 times

Complexity: 3 times 

Change: 3 times

My Elevator Pitch 🛗

I help people make sense of complexity. Through design, strategy, and a bit of improv, I bring teams together around clear decisions and build tools and experiences for public and social impact.

A Clickbait-y Experiment

In this article, I explore what my years doing improv comedy taught me about design thinking, and how a Sharpie cap that wouldn't click became a case study in noticing everyday irritations.

My Working and Leadership Style
How I lead and show up for teams, partners, and the people we design for.

Yes, and...

I build on what people bring instead of overriding it, because ideas grow when they’re accepted.

Listen. Listen. Listen.

The best ideas are already in the room. I facilitate conversation to surface and celebrate them.

Perfect Imperfection

I prototype early and often, because messy ideas get better when people can critique them.

Keep It Simple

I keep every message clear and short, because everyone’s time matters, from users to executives.

Make Your Team Look Good

I set my colleagues up to succeed, because the best work comes from an ensemble, not a solo.
