Who I am

I’m a user experience designer who specializes in tackling messy problems in the world of B2B software. My deep expertise in information architecture drives my passion to design intuitive systems that make it easy for real people to access & effectively use data.

As a leader & manager, I value and aim to foster curiosity, authenticity, and compassion. I believe the most successful design teams are encouraged to learn & try new things; find value in the work they’re doing; and feel empathy for their collaborators & customers.

Outside of work, you can find me knitting, weightlifting, conducting genealogical research for myself & others, and rooting for Philadelphia sports teams.
