Born and educated in Chicago, I'm a long-time Bay Area resident but a midwesterner at heart. My passion is making exceptional products and services with innovative technologies and design thinking strategies. With a list of clients like Intel, Genentech, Visa, Sony Entertainment Network, PwC, Yahoo! and MSNBC among many others, my work runs the gamut from ux design to brand strategy, from Fortune 100 web applications to consumer, native apps.

​

When it comes down to my creative approach, unless I'm communicating my clients' greatest stories, then I really haven't done my job at all. My aim is to create things people love to use, so research-driven design is close to my heart. At the same time I don't let that hinder innovation as some of the best ideas are ones people have never seen before.

​

Continuously on the look out for artistic inspiration, I spend my free time enjoying the outdoors, reading and drawing.
