You can call me .

I'm a principal designer at Everfi working on products, tools, and systems to help drive social good through education.

These things have allegedly reached more than 45 million learners globally.

This is my little slice of the internet.
Have a look around.

♦ About

Since 2021, I've led the implementation of a shared design system for e-learning admin, educator, and learner products. Recently, I've been working on a new learning management platform, diving deep into color spaces, and playing with web animation. You may notice some sprinkled throughout.

Before that, I designed financial & K12 products for Everfi, including Achieve, Engage, and Data Science. Plus a whole bunch of others for partners like Google,  Meta,  LinkedIn, Kroger,  Beyond Meat,  Truist, and more.

Some other things I've done:

  • Delivered a (finally relevant!) thesis exploring chatbots and conversational interface design patterns. Case study
  • Built a mapping application at NPR when I wasn't busy standing awkwardly in the background of Tiny Desk recordings.
  • Designed web & iOS screens, performed user testing, and made graphics for Parking Panda (acq. by SpotHero)
