I am an architect turned product designer, and enjoy working at the intersection of design, research, and strategy.

I have spent the last 4+ years with Google, and before that worked with brands like ESRI, Gaia, Uber, Muse, AltExchange, Copper Mountain, and other emerging start ups. I have designed across the gamut of digital devices - from iOS and Android mobile, tablets, and web apps, to multiple TV platforms and smart watches, while building and managing their robust design systems.

Strategic cross functional workshops are where I thrive, and thoroughly enjoying bringing everyone together to define problems. Along with my core team at Google I am also a Google Sprint Leader where I support teams with planning and facilitation, and also collaborate with global design leaders to explore, create, and test new methodologies of problem solving (you can check that out here).

I believe design is only as powerful as the intentions behind it, and this work teaches me to understand both people and the world more deeply and realistically. I strive to find balance between beauty and utility, refining a sense of when to be curious and when to be decisive, and surrounding myself with people who don’t take themselves too seriously and can teach me things I don’t know.

Having spent most of my life growing and learning in the Rocky Mountains, and you can usually find me on the snow, dirt, or in the water.
