Hi there! I’m a product designer with over 20 years of experience, beginning my career as a visual designer in places like LA and NYC, and now working as a Staff Product Designer in the Bay Area.

I started my career as a Digital Art Director, consulting with agencies like R/GA and Huge, and working with various brands in California and New York. Along the way, I had some exciting projects—like spending a year in Cupertino with Apple working on the App Store, and illustrating a set of super cute icons for AOL’s new Help Center. Those years working as a consultant at agencies and big tech taught me a lot about discipline, work ethic, and a commitment to high-quality design.

After a decade, I pivoted to UX, landing a role as a Product Designer at Brooklyn-based travel startup Atlas Obscura. Our small but passionate team built tools for a cult-favorite travel community, including a weekend trip planner that I designed that still serves as the foundation for their planning tools.

I then joined Etsy on the Growth team as a Senior Product Designer. After about a year, I moved to a team working on seller tools and services and I’ve spent the past 5 years working on seller-focused design. I love Etsy’s mission, my team, and the community we serve. Some highlights from my time at Etsy include designing Star Seller, a program designed to recognize and support sellers who consistently deliver exceptional customer service, and Make an Offer, which lets sellers negotiate with buyers.

Most recently at Etsy, I had the chance to step into a Product Design Manager role, where I learned a great deal about leadership and team management. While the experience was incredibly rewarding, my true passion for hands-on design drew me back to an IC role. I’m now a Staff Product Designer, serving as the Design Lead for Seller Services.

Now based in the Bay Area, I spend weekends biking around town and visiting farmers' markets with my husband and two daughters. Before kids, I was an avid traveler and have explored over 50 countries. I’ve been designing websites for fun since I was 13, staying up late to figure out HTML for my plethora of mid-90s era Geocities sites. Design brings me joy, and I feel lucky to do what I do.
