ABOUT 🦄

What draws me
isn't just complexity;
it's the people living inside it.


HUMAN-CENTERED DESIGN "UNICORN"

You found me.

I've held senior roles across all HCD disciplines, and possess unique, sought-after expertise in craft and collaboration. I possess expert capability in aligning, unifying, and orchestrating functions, and I continuosuly explore and pursue novel approaches and opportunities to organize ourselves to do our best work. This also means that I am equally as capable managing a team or leading or pairing on IC work in any given design discipline—whatever the needs of the organization.



WHAT I ADD TO TEAMS
A steady, human center.

I care about how people feel in their work—not as a side note, but as the foundation. When people feel supported and challenged in the right ways, creativity and clarity will follow.



I help teams create environments where people can do their best work, thrive, and give dignity and world-class experiences to the humans we serve.


Let’s design better systems.

Together,

for each other.

WHAT I UNIQUELY BRING


I design systems that feel different than the status quo.


My work sits between structure and sensitivity—between system architecture and lived experience. I map connections, surface breakdowns, and find where small shifts unlock meaningful change.


——


I've built research practices and led service design teams through growth, and helped organizations move from instinct to insight.

CHALLENGES I'M DRAWN TO


Problems that don't announce themselves clearly (often messy).


IMoments where people feel overwhelmed or quietly work around systems that don't support them. Places where the work matters, but the path isn't yet clear.


——


These are often high-stakes environments, and where thoughtful design can restore clarity, dignity, and momentum.

HOW I WORK


I stay close to people—and help

others do the same.


I listen closely, look deeply, and translate

insights into decisions and systems that

hold up in practice. I move between

detailed parts and the whole, aligning

individuals, teams, and organizations.


——


I also create the conditions for strong

work: clear direction, supportive teams,

curiosity, and growth. Humor helps!
