I didn’t start in design .. I started in a classroom, teaching kids. That’s where I learned empathy, patience, and how to communicate clearly with different minds. From there, I moved into research, working with a local organization. That phase sharpened my thinking, taught me how to ask the right questions, and pushed me to explore ideas in non-linear ways.

Eventually, my creative side took the lead. I spent nearly five years as a photographer and graphic designer, learning how to tell stories visually and communicate it emotionally.

Today, as a digital experience designer, I bring all of that together—curiosity, structure, and storytelling—to design experiences that connect with people and move businesses forward.
