I’ve organized my life around meaningful experiences with others. Whether creating a meal for friends, dreaming up a trip for my husband and kids, or designing a product, I'm passionate about making someone's day brighter. After working in graphic design for many years, I had the opportunity to design an app- Collaborating with a team to create a digital product that people enjoyed ignited a strong interest in how design can positively influence people. Taking the time to understand what the user needs and why they need it gives insights into designing a feature or a product that is intuitive, useful, and beautiful.

In my free time, when I'm not spending time with my family, I redesign physical spaces. I love to think about the use of space, the daily flow, and what it needs to communicate. Paying attention to the details is a way to show I care, no matter the design task.
