I have always been fascinated by the potential of creativity and design. I continue to be driven by a relentless curiosity to understand and improve the world around me. This passion for creative expression led me to pursue a career in experience design.
My career began early, where I learned the ancient craft of sign painting. As the internet and digital technology revolutionized the landscape, I adapted. I learned digital design techniques while recognizing the importance of helping companies communicate their values effectively. I created cohesive identity systems across multiple media channels, understanding that a well-intended message must be communicated consistently in order to be most effective.
I later earned a Bachelor of Arts from ArtCenter in 2009. As a student, I served as president of the EcoCouncil and the AIGA, learning the responsibilities of our vocation and advocating for conscious design. After I graduated. I also taught courses for over ten years that went beyond technical skills, promoting awareness of the profound influence design has on society.
My career experience is wide ranging, spanning across different industries. In the entertainment field, I worked with clients including Netflix, HBO, and a multitude of blockbuster movies and TV shows. I also worked at a UX Designer at the global ad agency, Chiat/Day, managing large-scale projects and tight deadlines. Their client roster included industry giants such as Apple, Adidas, Energizer and Gatorade.
I also served as the Lead Designer at the Huntington Library, Art Collections & Botanical Gardens. I created digital educational experiences for public good, managing projects from end to end, collaborating with government agencies and stakeholders.
Most recently, as a Senior Product Designer at Procore Technologies, I thrived in an environment that valued appreciation and support of its employees, with the mission to improve lives of everyone in construction. I established a design system that saved significant time for designers and developers, revolutionizing the application and paving the way for the future. I also pioneered big data insights and AI integrations, helping to drive innovation in how we build the world around us.
I am committed to explore projects that resonate deeply and filling me with inspiration. I am eager to join a group of like-minded individuals committed to taking responsibility for our planet and shaping a future filled with imagination and innovation.
