about me.

I’m a UX/UI Designer based in Washington, D.C., currently focused on consulting for government clients. My work spans the full design process, from research and wireframing to prototyping and usability testing. Specializing in user interface design and visual communication, I translate complex ideas into clear, functional designs that communicate effectively and engage users. At the heart of it, I enjoy transforming messy challenges into digital products that feel effortless, engaging, and accessible.

My path to design has been anything but linear. Before UX, I spent more than a decade as a clarinetist with the U.S. Marine Band, performing at the White House and throughout the U.S., Europe, and Asia. That experience taught me the discipline of refining a craft and how to connect with audiences from all walks of life—skills I carry into every project I take on today.

If you’d like to collaborate or discuss a project, I’d love to hear from you.
