About

With a robust educational background in Human Computer Interaction Design from Harvard University, Journalism - Art from the University of Missouri-Columbia, and Interactive Media & HCI from The Art Institutes, I have cultivated a diverse skill set that bridges technology and design. Currently serving as the AI Design Lead at Yogi, I lead a team focused on leveraging LLMs to enhance data-driven relationships between customers and brands. My freelance work as a Fractional Design Leader has seen me guide numerous startups from concept to launch, including projects like Woven and MyLUA. Previously, I was the Founding Designer at AssetWatch® and Crate, where I drove significant user growth and engagement. My tenure as Principal Product Design Lead at Amazon Web Services (AWS) involved pioneering IoT delivery platforms and integrating PaaS solutions. My career is marked by a blend of innovative design, strategic leadership, and a commitment to user-centric solutions.
