Hello, I'm a designer based in Boston.
I love asking the big questions and collaborating with people whose minds work differently from mine. As a designer and a human, I have a high understanding and tolerance for other people’s needs and differences. My goal is to make the world better through the power of accessibility, storytelling, and art.
diverse skillset, obsession with craft, affinity for creative problem solving
