Who I am

I am a creative thinker who loves solving problems people thought are not possible. My background joins technical expertise in engineering with a passion for innovative design that produces award-winning results. Because I am dedicated to interdisciplinary work, I have led projects in fields as wide-ranging as an interactive art installation, augmented reality, exhibit design, web/mobile application, to concept vehicles.

Teams function best when each member is allowed to focus on the area that ignites their creativity and harnesses their particular skill sets. As a person in charge of product vision, I see my role as bringing all of these voices to the table, helping shape them into a cohesive product that meets a client’s needs without compromising quality. Nothing brings me greater joy than to see the products my teams worked on to go out into the world and make it a better place. 

Outside of work, I enjoy tackling projects like remodeling my home, volunteering my time at a non-profit organization redesigning a 3D face shield model to optimize print time, and learning how to fly a plane. I also have two dogs who keep me laughing with their antics.
