For more than a decade, I’ve helped organizations modernize complex government and enterprise software. My work focuses on transforming complicated workflows, technical requirements, and business objectives into products that feel clear, intuitive, and built around the people who use them.

I believe strong product design begins before the first screen is created. It begins with listening, asking the right questions, understanding the broader system, and bringing the right people into the conversation. Whether I’m leading discovery, mapping workflows, prototyping a solution, improving accessibility, or building a design system, my goal is to create clarity and help teams make confident decisions.

The greatest influence on my career has been the people I’ve worked alongside. Collaborating with product managers, engineers, researchers, executives, developers, healthcare professionals, cybersecurity experts, subject-matter experts, and users has taught me how to examine challenges from multiple perspectives, navigate competing priorities, and build alignment around a shared vision.

My approach combines systems thinking with close attention to the individual user experience. I enjoy finding the connections between people, processes, and technology—then translating those insights into practical solutions that balance user needs, business goals, and technical realities.

Outside of my professional work, I contribute my design expertise to nonprofit organizations in Frederick, including the Housing Authority of the City of Frederick and Advocates for Homeless Families. I’m also an active member of TechFrederick, where I participate in networking, professional development, and nonprofit hackathons that bring designers, developers, and business leaders together to address community challenges.

When I’m not designing, you’ll often find me playing soccer with my longtime coed team. The game continues to reinforce qualities that shape how I work: communication, adaptability, trust, and an understanding that the strongest results come from people working together.

I don’t measure my career only by titles or products. I measure it by the problems I’ve helped solve, the relationships I’ve built, and the products and teams I’ve helped move forward.
