About




Words are my favorite design tool


My path started with a thesis on mindful social media use. Turns out, helping people feel empowered online is my calling. When I discovered content design, it just clicked.


How I work


Clear beats clever. Every word earns its place. Design for everyone. I love big-picture work like building brand voices and style guides that scale story and personality across platforms. I'm drawn to products that make life better, not busier (think mindful tech, education, and creativity).


Off the clock?


I'm learning new art mediums, propagating plants, and reviewing films on Letterboxd. My apartment is equal parts jungle and art supply store. Pushing my creativity keeps me curious—there's always a new way to tell a story.


Bottom line


I design content that helps people feel more capable, curious, or calm. Let's make the internet a little friendlier together.
