About Me

I’m a Midwesterner at heart who has practiced and taught design across the globe and in all corners of the United States. I care deeply about my family and friends, the natural environment, helping people learn new skills, creating laughter, drawing what I see, and designing products up to the standards of Dieter Rams. I don’t care too much for social media, mangos, and people’s prejudices. For a living, I’ve worked at some really exciting and lovely organizations such as Designlab, Stanford University’s d.school, Umbau School for Architecture, The Design Gym, The Hive at the Claremont Colleges, and JMU X-Labs.

In my current role at Designlab, I produce courses that help people of all ages learn UX and UI design. In the evenings and on weekends, I’m available for freelance work and collaborations.
