The Strategist
I lead UX with systems thinking and a product lens. With 10+ years across cybersecurity, SaaS, and enterprise tools, I turn ambiguity into aligned, actionable design—always balancing user insight with business goals.
Strategic UX Designer. Systems Thinker. Creative Problem-Solver.
I lead UX with systems thinking and a product lens. With 10+ years across cybersecurity, SaaS, and enterprise tools, I turn ambiguity into aligned, actionable design—always balancing user insight with business goals.
From research and strategy to flows, UI, and delivery, I build scalable digital experiences that move people—and product—forward. At Tidal Cyber, I own the end-to-end UX process as the sole designer, collaborating deeply across teams.
Outside of UX, I paint murals, mentor women in tech, and run my own creative studio. I believe great design tells a story, solves real problems, and reflects the world we want to shape.
My path into UX wasn’t linear—but it was intentional. I started in nonprofit communications, built a career in web and branding, and eventually found my way to product design by asking deeper questions about how people interact with technology.
Since then, I’ve evolved from designer to strategist—leading cross-functional collaborations, building systems, and helping shape product direction at the intersection of design and business.
In 2024, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. After undergoing a double mastectomy and reconstruction, I’m proud to now call myself a survivor. That experience changed me—deepening my empathy, sharpening my focus, and reminding me what really matters: impact, intention, and connection.
Whether I’m designing a user flow or painting a mural, I bring that same resilience, clarity, and care into everything I do. I believe design should empower, storytelling should heal, and we all deserve tools—and systems—that meet us where we are.
Outside of work, you’ll find me exploring bold flavors, creating art, mentoring women in tech, and making memories with my family (plus two dogs, two cats, and a fish). Life is messy, beautiful, and always in progress—and I bring that spirit into my design work, too.
