Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
I'm a UX/UI Designer with experience in developing design identities and building digital products from concept to completion within the healthcare and financial technology space. Leveraging a decade of leadership in fashion design and non-profit management, I bring a unique and holistic perspective to product design.
Previously, I had spent 6+ years in the fashion industry as a Senior Designer at Abercrombie & Fitch. Here, I learned what it meant to implement the design thinking process within the corporate structure which included in depth research, iteration, and gaining buy-in from leadership all while managing a team of designers and working cross functionally with merchant, sourcing, and tech teams.
I also have 4+ years of experience in non-profit leadership, where I developed Adoption and Foster programs from the ground up. Not only did I connect cats and dogs with permanent families but I also focused on enhancing the adopter's experience. This involved streamlining digital engagement through our website and apps, managing in-person interactions, and understanding adopter needs.
Before my fashion design and non-profit work, I had the opportunity to attend and graduate with honors from The Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) where I studied Apparel Design.
For fun, you'll most likely find me doodling in my sketchbook or creating pet portraits.
