Meet Our Designers

Creative ideas flourish in environments where the social, personal, and interpersonal collide. This is why I love working at the intersection of design, technology, and education. I’ve worked with physicians, engineers, scientists, and students to develop award-winning products for institutions and organizations. I possess strong analytical, creative, and visual craft skills complemented by a reliable work ethic and team spirit. Whether it is overseeing the development of a medical app for the New England Journal of Medicine, or a K-12 project-based learning platform for innovation schools, I have a track record for collaborating across cross-functional teams and leading multidisciplinary projects.
