I'm a connector, whether we're talking dots, flows, findings, or people.

I work best in the grey areas, where the right insight turns hesitation into certainty, and a No into a Yes.

Beyond UI/UX, I bring experience in design ops and product management. This allows me to approach design with a more versatile, strategic, and business-minded perspective than most.
