About me
I’m a UX leader with over 10 years of experience driving product innovation and scaling teams, currently leading UX for Indeed’s top-rated job seeker mobile apps. I specialize in cross-functional collaboration, creating inclusive design cultures, user-centered design, and turning complex problems into elegant solutions. I’m passionate about designing meaningful experiences—whether that’s in my day-to-day work, through freelance projects, or by mentoring designers. I bring curiosity, empathy, and joy into everything I do.
I also enjoy learning new tools and techniques and work hard to stay current with design trends. My free time is spent getting outside, exploring the many neighborhoods of Brooklyn, DIYing at my house in Hudson, hanging with friends, catching a live show (music or stand-up comedy), and hanging at the yoga studio.
