Don’t think in order to build, build in order to think.

My background began in landscape architecture and urban design, driven by a fascination with city life and placemaking. I was curious to understand how people wanted to and would use a space. Similar to user experience design, I was designing for people, only my canvas was physical instead of digital.

And then at one point, I discovered smart cities and how technology was shaping urban life, especially through IoT devices and transit innovations. That exposure ultimately led me to shift my focus to digital experiences, where I felt I could make an even broader impact.

Since that pivot, I’ve been chasing technology that does good. Historically, that has drawn me to the health tech space but I know I’ve only scratched the surface. Wherever that adventure takes me, my core mission is to design meaningful experiences for people.
