I’m a product designer working across AI agents, creator tools, and complex cross-device experiences.
Before product design, I trained as an architect. That background still shapes how I work: I think in systems, hierarchy, relationships, and how people move through complex environments. After moving into HCI and product design, those instincts became tools for structuring flows, interactions, and scalable design systems.
Over the past 3 years, I’ve often worked on products that were still taking shape. I enjoy the messy stage: clarifying what matters, turning fragmented features into coherent experiences, and working closely with PMs and engineers to get them shipped.
My work has received a Red Dot Design Award and GOOD DESIGN®, and has been recognized as an IDEA Finalist and UX Design Awards nominee. I’m currently completing my MSI at the University of Michigan.

I started with physical spaces and now design digital ones. Architecture taught me to see the whole system before refining the details.

Historic neighborhoods, museums, and cultural spaces are still some of my favorite places to explore. I’m fascinated by how design carries context and meaning over time.
