About Me
I’m a curious person who loves learning, so I’m usually taking at least one class a year in something that excites me. I come from a teaching background, which means I’m used to juggling a lot, thinking on my feet, and designing for all kinds of learners.
I enjoy finding gaps and figuring out how to fill them—whether that’s improving a process, organizing information, or creating something that makes people’s work easier. I lean on a mix of digital tools, creativity, and collaboration to make things more useful and user-friendly.
When I’m not working, I’m usually doodling new designs and characters, playing around with a new idea, exploring mountains, or enjoying a new flavor of tea.
