Not only is she clearly an expert at user interface design, but she really knows how to articulate and communicate her work in ways that promote teamwork and open communication. She seeks involvement and feedback from many stakeholders during the planning & design stages, with the clear end goal of a great user experience.

About Me

I'm a UX/UI Designer and Front-End Engineer with 7+ years of experience creating user-centered digital experiences across financial services, enterprise software, healthcare, and defense sectors.

My unique combination of design expertise and technical implementation skills allows me to bridge the gap between design vision and development reality. I'm passionate about accessibility, design systems, and creating experiences that work for all users.

As an IBM-certified Enterprise Design Thinking Practitioner and Google Mobile Web Specialist, I bring rigorous methodology to every project. I've been recognized through IBM's Aspiring Leaders program and have spoken at All Things Open on topics ranging from React testing to STEM education.

When I'm not designing or coding, you'll find me with my family and dogs walking, hiking, or playing in the Umstead State Park.
