About

I’m a designer with 15+ years of experience in product design, user research, and frontend engineering. I’ve worked across a variety of industries on applications for electoral redistricting, risk forecasting, watershed modeling, digital pathology, satellite imagery, and more.
I currently work in journalism as a Product Designer at ProPublica, partnering with teams across the newsroom to design and build tools that make data actionable and accessible. I’ve led initiatives to shift the organization towards a more user-centered mindset by creating a user research playbook and starting a cross-team design critique.
Previously, I was a User Experience Designer at Azavea, where I specialized in designing geospatial web applications. And for two years, I taught a popular Web Development for City Planners class at The University of Pennsylvania. I studied Sociology at Haverford College.
I enjoy going for long walks, chasing toy birds with Olive, defying my fear of heights, tinkering with unusual keyboards, and refining my All Genres, All Decades Running Mix.
