About

I am a Senior UX / Product Experience Designer based in the Indianapolis area. With a background in graphic design, I’ve honed my ability to craft compelling visuals, but my passion for human-centered design led me to evolve my career into UX, UI, and product experience design.

I specialize in designing holistic, user-centered experiences that balance usability, aesthetics, and business goals. From concept development to execution, I focus on creating intuitive, frictionless interactions that not only meet user needs but also drive engagement and delight. I thrive on solving complex problems, optimizing workflows, and ensuring that digital products deliver seamless and impactful experiences. I work in both web and mobile platforms.

What sets me apart is my ability to think strategically about the entire product journey and its role within the broader ecosystem. I love collaborating with cross-functional teams to bridge the gap between user needs, business objectives, and technical feasibility.

Beyond UX and PX, I have a strong passion for illustration and iconography, leveraging these skills to enhance product storytelling and brand identity.

When I'm not designing or drawing something, I can be found hanging out with my husband and our dogs, gaming, reading, obsessing over music, or assembling a Lego set.
