My vibe

I believe that pixels matter because people matter. I design because I love creating optimal experiences that are broadly accessible. I have a strengths based approach to mentorship and value diversity of experience. I invest heart energy into the teams I am a part of, which fosters positive momentum and ultimately drives innovative work.

I surf the waves of technology

  • I was Contentful’s first US based design hire in 2023. In this role, I’ve moderated design sprints, created apps and evaluated technology that informed the company’s AI investment of customer features and internal process.

  • I managed a team of six product designers during the Twitter acquisition in 2022. Our team focused on developer customers who leverage Twitter APIs and data.

  • I founded and ran an independent product design consultancy for two years. During this time, I executed design work for digital products in the following industries: Fintech, Health, Food service, Energy, Gaming and Cannabis.

  • For seven semesters I taught product design to grad students at CU.

  • In 2012 when responsive design first became a thing, I created responsive templates for Lexus.com to ensure mobile web accessibility.

Backstory

It began with wireframes.

My product design practice started with strategy and wireframes, and over time grew to include a wide range of experiences including visual execution, research, testing and team leadership.

Boulder, CO has been my home for the past decade. I got here by way of Philadelphia, New York City, and Los Angeles.

I love nature. My favorite ways to spend time are hiking, camping, skiing and practicing yoga. I’m a parent, a partner and a dog mom. I learn about the world by meeting people, traveling and listening to podcasts.
