About Me
During my 7+ years in the industry, I’ve worked with early-stage startups in a variety of industries. Through my experience, I’ve been able to help companies navigate the challenges of launching and scaling their businesses.
My passion for developing and designing not only fuels my professional journey but also motivates me to continuously push the boundaries of what's possible in the world of design.
In my free time, I’m either reading for my book club, cheering on the Raptors, or (my latest obsession) learning about wine.
Senior Product Designer
Catalog Studios
2020 – Present
Remote
Designed and prototyped end-to-end product experiences and features for a multitude of small-to-medium, venture-backed companies. Working closely with product, engineering, and marketing stakeholders, I ensured that each project reflected business objectives in a way that maximized user engagement and drove success. I primarily designed for the web (marketing/sales websites and web-based apps), but also across touchpoints like branding, mobile, and web development (mostly Webflow-based).
As the first hire at the company I’ve had my hand in the majority of the 50+ client’s we’ve worked with. One of the most notable things I've enjoyed working at Catalog is seeing how the team has grown (now at 15+) as well as working with clients across 10+ industries - including consumer products, lifestyle, education, social media, financial services, and transportation.
