About

I'm a senior Product Designer with eight years spent shipping complex products across AI, fintech, healthcare, and games. I had the good fortune of working on the New York Times Games app, which won an Apple Design Award in 2024.

I think in systems and stay close to research, but mostly I'm just deeply curious — the kind of designer who keeps tinkering long after the workday ends. AI is what's got my attention these days; I'm genuinely optimistic about it, and I love exploring what it makes possible for the things we get to design and build.
