I am a multifaceted designer driven by curiosity. With an affinity for code, animation, and systems design, my career is focused on using tools to help people solve problems
Motion is Captivating
Animation can tell a much deeper story. When used intentionally and with restraint motion can be helpful and communicative, especially in interface design.
Let's make it accessible
Colors, interaction patterns, animations, HTML ARIA attributes and page structure are opportunities to please a larger group of users.Accessible design also results in better code structure!

Versitality, modularity, Curiosity.
As a designer, flexibility and being able to adapt to almost any environment is paramount to to success. We are in a field that’s always evolving. Constantly learning, adapting, and sharing creates endless opportunities for both impact and growth.
Make simple things simple, & hard things possible
Complexity can be very intriguing. Understanding how things – and people – work, empowers us to better provide solutions. There is great power in simplification, without losing functionality.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
A good prototype is worth 10 meetings. Prototyping, and iteration is integral to successful product design. Coded, Figma, Paper. The tool and fidelity should match the detail necessary to communicate the feature or interaction(s) to the the target audience, in a given timeframe.
A maker's mindset
Embrace failure. Failure isn’t the opposite of success; it’s a step towards it. Each failure is a valuable opportunity to learn, improve, and move closer to the right solution, the perfect fit, or the true user need.
