Background

I'm a Portland, Oregon-based product designer with over a decade of experience working with a variety of startups and organizations. Currently, I'm the Lead Product Designer at Pomelo, a fintech startup that empowers immigrants in the US to effortlessly send money to their families back home through the innovative use of credit. Previously, I consulted with startups and a variety of organizations to design and build impactful and scalable digital products, was a part of the founding teams at Sidewalk and Remotion, and helped customers better manage their money at Simple Finance.

I bring simple, straight-forward solutions to complex problems, and am passionate about building engaging, effective and customer-centric experiences. My process is driven by collaboration, user research and testing, customer data, brainstorming, prototyping and rapid iteration. With extensive experience leading large end-to-end projects and working cross-functionally, I place high value in bringing teams together early and fostering an atmosphere of trust and exploration.
