AngelQ uses AI to make the internet safe for kids. I helped design and develop an immersive, AI-powered experience that nurtures curiosity and lets kids explore within a parent-approved environment — free from negative influences and harmful content.

Adventure SOS provides innovative tracking and safety features to equestrians, cyclists, and hunters including the ability to notify emergency contacts if the rider falls or becomes separated from their horse or bike. I worked with the team through the entire product development process from concept to delivery.

About me

For over a decade, I've helped organizations tell their story and craft high-quality experiences for their customers. I'm honored to have worked with many talented people. Together we've developed unique products that solve problems and have a positive impact on people and their communities.

UX design

Creating high-quality digital products requires empathy and understanding. My design process is grounded in user-centered research, modern design patterns, and a bit of creativity.

Collaboration

Building great products requires adaptability and teamwork. I'm a big advocate for tools and processes that help teams collaborate and move faster without losing focus.

iOS & Android development

Great code is thoughtfully architected and easy to maintain. I favor native development for its performance, flexibility, and experiences that feel truly at home on each platform.
