I’m a product designer who challenges the status quo through high-craft, viable products across consumer tech, healthcare, enterprise and AI.

More about me

Read my CV (resume, opens in a new tab), stalk me (LinkedIn, opens in a new tab), or
reach out via any time.

I've always been drawn to unpacking how the world around me works, and it's quietly steered every path I've taken. Now, I design for the world as it's becoming, and for the people still at the center of it. And I'm a firm believer that AI should be designed for, with and by people. Take a quick tour:

mini me · 2002
a tiny crybaby, until i met the family computer. we've been inseparable since.
undergrad · 2020 – 2024
4 years of engineering, more group projects than i can count. started wondering for who & why we build, which led to my first ui/ux design internship.
grad school, IU Indianapolis · 2024 – 2026
moved countries to master the interaction between humans and computers (M.S. in HCI :p). along the way, designed a b2b clinical platform and an early-stage startup's core ai interview product.
United Airlines Capstone · 2025 – 2026
partnered with one of the world's biggest airlines to rethink how 181M passengers a year get through the airport, in a world going digital faster than physical spaces can keep up.
Toyota Mobility Foundation · 2026 – now
currently researching how self-driving cars could connect underserved communities to food, financial, educational and legal aid.
open to new work opportunities!

beyond being a professional, i'm usually chasing bread and coffee around the city i'm in, petting every cat and dog that'll let me, singing (not just the bathroom kind), or planning my fourth itinerary for the perfect japan trip. stickers are the way to my heart.

if you're interested in chatting about where ai and design are headed, a tricky project you're stuck on, or honestly just a good substack swap, my /dms (LinkedIn, opens in a new tab) are always open.
