About

I’m a multi-disciplined artist, photographer, and accomplished designer. I have a passionate interest in solving design problems, telling stories, and creating both beautiful and purposeful imagery. I have a Bachelor of Science from California Polytechnic State University in Graphic Communication with a concentration in Design Reproduction Technology. Through my education and experience I have gleaned a wide breadth of knowledge in art and design.

In my most recent work at Snap, I was responsible for envisioning new interface designs and visual language for Snap’s next generation AR glasses on the Spectacles team. This allowed me to work with the latest technology, setting standards for user interface design in the augmented reality forefront.

Previously, I have contributed and worked on the Microsoft Family and Google Trust & Safety teams. Microsoft Family centered around building products that helped keep kids safe during their online usage, while Google Trust & Safety was focused on making the internet a safer place, free of violence, hate, abuse, and harm. These opportunities have deepened my interest in the importance of trust and security in design, and protecting users in digital spaces.

Beyond my work experience and degree in design, my passion encompasses human rights, social awareness, and human compassion. I believe empathy is at the heart of all good design, and I find amazing work is achievable through understanding another’s vision. It is my goal to listen, empathize, empower, and most of all, understand the humans I interact and work with.
