I make things and design experiences that help people become the person they desire to be. I design services that enable conversations between people and products, and that satisfy the desires of human beings through intuitive and meaningful interactions.

I am a senior interaction designer + innovation lead at the AT&T Foundry--an innovation and engineering incubator--in Palo Alto, CA. As an innovation lead, I bring human-centered design methodologies to early stage product and service design opportunities, guiding project development through design strategies. I work with entrepreneurs and engineering teams to define the desired user experience, and guide projects from idea to product using design strategies. The majority of my work intersects mobile interaction design with broad service ecosystems, as well a focus on building creative collaboration spaces to help innovators carry their concepts through into interactive prototypes.
