What I love

I like to look at things from an outside perspective and have a problem solving mind. With a natural ability to collaborate and bring people together, my designs are the result of deep empathy, co-creation, and a commitment to delivering impactful solutions. I'm also an illustrator, painter, a good cook, a karaoke singer and a plant mom.
