I’m a product designer with nearly a decade of experience spanning startups and global companies. From being the first designer at VidGrid to leading projects at Visa’s North America Innovation team, I’ve had the opportunity to shape experiences, create design systems, and influence positive change through design. At Visa, I focus on payments-related Generative AI applications and explore proofs of concept within the Innovation team. Recently, I led the design of a tool that transforms knowledge search and discovery, making complex information accessible through natural language processing. My approach is highly collaborative and strategic. I create products that are human-centered, informed by data, and product-driven. I’m passionate about craftsmanship and attention to detail. I excel at finding unlikely connections throughout the design process that bring clarity to complexity, delivering experiences that are intuitive and impactful.
