Hello!
I’m a human-centered design leader with a track record of internationally recognized projects and a passion for solving complex challenges across both digital and physical products.
With deep experience in Tech, Medical Device, and Healthcare, I thrive on leading the creation of strategic, impactful designs that reach global markets. Today, I bring that same drive to Resmed, the world leader in sleep health, where I design life-changing technologies that improve people’s everyday lives.
Beyond work, I’m active in San Diego’s design community—serving as Local Leader for IxDF San Diego and participating in groups like UX Speakeasy, SDXD, and A11y SD. I’m also passionate about growth, connection, and creativity—whether through professional development, building community, or exploring the outdoors with my dog, Ziggie 🐕.
