ABOUT

I'm a designer of interactions exploring emerging interfaces, creative tools, and playful systems for learning, creativity and mindfulness.

I specialize in rapidly prototyping ideas across mediums—film, apps, and code—to bring abstract concepts to life.

One of my favorite challenges is connecting insights across disciplines and finding the right format to communicate complexity.
