I'm a product designer with an engineering lens, most interested in productivity tools with AI.

I’ve called myself a designer, an engineer, a design engineer—but "product designer" is still the one that feels right. I especially enjoy early stages of exploration and systems thinking.

Outside of designing, I dance, climb, and hunt for yummy food.

Open to contract work starting December 2026. Reach out if you wanna be friends or colleagues!
