You are much more likely to remember an immersive experience.

 

As a kid, I was fascinated by the work that goes into making a single animation cell in a Walt Disney film: the story, sketches, hand-painting on cellophane, teams working on different characters, backgrounds/foregrounds, taking still photos, and combining hundreds of those photos into a universal motion picture that many cultures can enjoy. 

 

In my career, I have been fortunate to design revolutionary end-to-end products at global companies—in an equally immersive process—resulting in beautifully crafted experiences for consumers everywhere (including those behind the scenes).

​

Most recently, I was Associate Director of Product Design for Physical Retail Tech at Wayfair, where I bridged the digital and physical worlds for a seamless omnichannel experience. Previously, I worked at Amazon, Starbucks, and Uber.

​

I am passionate about building stronger, more inclusive communities. In my spare time, I mentor emerging designers in minorities and work on humanitarian and animal welfare projects. I'm a member of Round where I connect, inspire, and spark collaboration with other senior leaders in tech. On the weekends, I flip through interior design and lifestyle magazines, park-hop in the great Pacific Northwest with my partner + dogs, and try to get 1% better every day.
