About Me

I'm a Senior Product Designer with 8 years of experience creating user-centered digital products. Currently at Meta, I lead design for AR/VR experiences that bring people together in virtual spaces.

My passion lies in solving complex interaction challenges and making emerging technologies accessible to everyone. I believe great design is invisible – it just works.

When I'm not designing, you'll find me hiking in Marin County, experimenting with 3D art, or playing guitar in my home studio.
