Oh heyyy, nice to meet you.
I’m currently based in NYC, where I work as a Lead Product Designer at Target. Before that, I studied at the College of Charleston Honors College, earning a degree in Computing in the Arts with a concentration in Digital Media. I’ve been fascinated by the digital world for as long as I can remember, and through both education and experience I discovered a deep passion for product design, user experience, and branding. Today, I’m focused on using those skills to create meaningful, mission-driven work.

I also love a lot of things — clever design, photo editing, finding the perfect gift for someone, the sound of someone washing clothes in a river in a movie, night bike rides, Fridays, Mondays, hiking, ice cream shops with cow-themed references, the opening number of a musical, severe thunderstorms, hotel-breakfast apple juice, meeting new people, weddings, Taylor Swift, karaoke, Taylor Swift karaoke, laughing, staying in, and songs that transport you back to a specific moment in your life.

Thanks for stopping by my site. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions — or just want to say hey.
