I am a creative and curious thinker, passionate about making positive changes in the world through design. Teammates describe me as focused and hard working, with high standards for excellence. I’m originally from Chicago but also lived in London. I’m energized by new communities, cultures, and ways of thinking.
I am actively seeking to launch my post-college career in the summer 2025. I am most interested and experienced in product & industrial design, strategy & service design, consulting, and creative applications of technology to urban spaces.
