About
Nice to meet you!
I’ve cut my teeth as a designer grappling with juicy problems like diversifying pathways into STEM careers for non-traditional candidates and helping learners develop media literacy skills by evaluating sources and identifying bias. A throughline of my work has been increasing equity in access to educational and career opportunities for everyone.
Nine years of teaching gave me a deep understanding of how people engage with new, complex information and what they need to effectively engage, absorb, and utilize it. This experience, coupled with my expertise in accessible design, allows me to create frictionless digital environments that successfully serve diverse user groups.
