I studied creative advertising at Michigan State University and currently I am finishing up a UX/UI Bootcamp with Northwestern University.  I have a good sense of humor and love using design for positive change. I’m a curious creator and love working alongside a diverse team, challenging myself and others to do better. 

After hours? You can find me with bubbly water and my iPad, creating illustrations for my Instagram following and my larger coloring book project. Art is my passion, and it deeply inspires my day-to-day designing.

I love what I do, and that's helping people like you make an impact through human-centered design.
