A lifelong passion for learning and discovery drives my love of design.
What I’ve been up to lately at Atlassian (Trello):
Leading cross-product designs linking Trello with Loom and Jira, shipping growth and onboarding experiences, and exploring AI-enabled workflows. Contact me to learn more.
My design career has unfolded in a uniquely winding path, starting with my work for landmark beauty brands Estée Lauder and Origins, where I created brand design across global skincare, makeup and holiday markets.
As an independent creative, I founded an e-commerce stationery business, designing and shipping modern invitations for hundreds of clients. I also expanded my consultant practice, designing identities, event design, and web and mobile designs for e-commerce, SaaS and consumer brands.
I became deeply interested in user experience, seeing firsthand the impact user-centric design has on both profit and customer happiness. This led to my a-ha moment: a full pivot to product design, allowing me to dig deeper into ambiguous, complex workflows, and I haven’t looked back since!
Outside of design, I enjoy playing with paint, practicing yoga and pilates, and relaxing outside with our goofy cattle dog mix, Gus.
