My creative journey started when I was young in Maine, designing houses in the woods to help fairies. Now, I'm designing products in NYC to help people.

I graduated college as a Computer Science major, English minor (ask me about reciting the Canterbury Tales in Middle English), and an Arts & Tech certificate program scholar. My multidisciplinary interests, passion for problem solving, and drive to help others led me to UX.

‍

Post-grad, I joined Rapid7’s growth strategy UX rotational program and landed a full-time Web UX Engineer role afterwards. On every coding project, I found myself obsessing over the "Why?" - while I liked building solutions, I loved the process of designing solutions. After being impacted by layoffs, I took time to reflect on who I am and what I value, and all signs pointed back to UX and product design.



Currently, I lead design for the Acquisition Enablement Platforms core platform experience at Chase, working on shaping our B2B2C platform experience and all things design system.



Other things that feel important to share: I love baking NYT’s Gochujang cookie recipe, I always pick up heads-up pennies off the ground, I won "most dependable" in high school, I was in an adult ballet recital despite being an atrocious dancer (it was awesome), and I love to meet new people. Let's connect!
