I’ve always lived in the space between science and art. As an undergrad, I started off in engineering but switched to poetry writing. I appreciate structure, order, and efficiency—but I also love spontaneity, serendipity, and creativity.
As a poet, I enjoy words. They can be playful, or a challenge. They can harm, and they can heal. Words matter.
My path has been winding, from journalism to editing to web development. Eventually, I found my way to design, and when I did, I was in awe. The craft, the process, the methods—the impact. It could be as small as changing a word on a page, or as large as redesigning the postal system.
I believe in the power of design to shape the world. Everything we make is design—from digital screens to government policy. When design is done well, people feel better about themselves and each other. The world runs more smoothly. And just like words, design can harm or heal. Small or large—design matters.
Today, I’m a design leader, consultant, and advocate for creating experiences that matter. I work with teams to untangle the messy, embrace ambiguity, and elevate people along the way. I’ve spent years leading design at scale, helping organizations deliver services and experiences that people don’t just use—they feel cared for by. That’s what the best design does: it shows care.
Outside of work, you’ll find me enjoying life with my wife and our golden doodle, running in Central Park, playing soccer, or relaxing with a good craft beer.
If you care about creating thoughtful, meaningful experiences—whether for customers, employees, or the world at large—let’s connect. I’m always up for a good conversation, a new challenge, or a fresh perspective on how design can make a difference.
Cheers!
