Born and raised in Dallas, TX, I’m currently a UX Designer working on web apps at DealerOn. I lead the UX on three projects and contribute to our design system.
Previously, I was at Attentive as a Visual Designer on the Product team. Shipping product updates, design systems, and accessible web experiences, I collaborated with client strategy, engineers, and PMs to improve our product for users.
In May 2021, I received a BFA from the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis. I majored in Communication Design and minored in Writing and CS.
I’ve taken classes at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) and The New School (Parsons).
In my spare time, I like birdwatching, cooking, creative coding, making narrative comics, playing Minecraft with friends, and adding to my novelty sock collection.
I’m always open to inquiries, coffee chats, and new opportunities! 🥂
