I am a design enthusiast based out of Washington DC. With over 15 years of experience working in the Design industry, I have gained expertise through a strong passion for creating stunning ideas, intuitive experiences and helping shape and lead the design process.

Starting as a Graphic Designer working on advertising campaigns and brand identities, I have learned the necessary skills to come up with a creative idea, execute it and sell it. I have worked with large ad agencies including BBDO and Ogilvy creating advertising and marketing material for large international brands including Mercedes Benz and Pepsi.

In the last 7 years, I switched my focus towards technology and software development. I work in an agile environment collaborating with Product and Development to create user-centered and intuitive experiences. Understanding the business needs and technical feasibility as well as putting the user at the heart of the strategy is my philosophy for creating revenue-generating and seamless experiences.

I also have a strong passion for mentoring and coaching. I am a UI/UX Design mentor and coach at CareerFoundry and The University of Texas at Austin. Guiding, inspiring and motivating emerging designers by putting them on the right track and teaching them the fundamentals of achieving a successful Design career.
