I’m a hacker-tinkerer at heart — a interdisciplinary designer obsessed with poking holes in systems and prototyping better ones. With experience across innovation strategy, experience design, and speculative design, I move fluidly between visual craft and systems thinking, always led by curiosity, empathy, and care.

I’ve designed for early-stage healthtech, collaborated with global brands, and contributed to forward-looking experiments in digital health and behavior change. My work often lives at the intersection of design and strategy — where ambiguity, rapid iteration, and unexpected partnerships thrive.

From reimagining the humble pillbox to improve medication adherence, to shaping how services are marketed, delivered, and experienced, I build thoughtful, human-centered solutions that challenge the default. I’ve also taken meaningful detours through caregiving and teaching — both of which sharpened my ability to listen, adapt, and meet people where they are.

I belong in spaces where design is leveraged for growth, experimentation, and impact — especially when the path forward isn’t obvious. I'm always learning, always building, and always searching for collaborators who believe design should be a force for real, grounded change.

Core Skills:

  • Speculative + Critical Design: Learn to explore "what if" scenarios to critique current systems and imagine alternative futures.

  • Systems Thinking: Ability to see the bigger picture, connect dots across disciplines, and design interventions at the level of services, systems, and policies.

  • Prototyping + Storytelling: Build artifacts (digital and physical), films, installations, or experiences to communicate complex ideas clearly and provocatively.
