Growing up across multiple countries shaped how I understand people, their cultures, languages, and the mental models that influence how they navigate the world. That curiosity became the foundation of my design career.

After earning my MFA in Graphic Design, I began working with nonprofits, building multilingual identity systems for Habitat for Humanity and the Jimmy Carter Work Project while teaching design at the university level. At Lenovo, I led usability for the ThinkSystems Out-of-Box experience. At Optum, I led design for patient and provider platforms, including decision-at-point-of-care systems, care management platforms, and clinical decision support tools where translating complex workflows into intuitive, actionable experiences was critical to improving outcomes.

At Omnicell, I helped define the multi-product vision for medication management across the autonomous pharmacy ecosystem. Today, I am a founding design leader at Slope, shaping the product architecture and experience for an AI-enabled biospecimen platform that connects operational processes, regulatory requirements, and digital systems.

My work focuses on reducing cognitive load, increasing clarity, and designing systems that support better decision-making in high-stakes environments. I partner closely with Product, Engineering, and domain stakeholders to ensure design is not just a layer on top, but a core driver of product strategy.

I live in Cary, North Carolina with my partner and two teenage children. If your team is navigating a complex system and looking for clarity, I would love to connect.
