I am a lead designer and mentor, creating work that combines strategy with strong visuals.
Having worked with clients on projects from ideation to launch, I am comfortable with the entire design process.

I have given talks and taught workshops to hundreds of creative professionals. My topics are design, branding, career development, entrepreneurship, and gender equity.

Currently, I work as an Experience Designer at Thoughtworks with a focus on design systems and accessibility.
