about me
I’m a product designer who deeply values craftsmanship, attention to detail, and good taste. As early as I can remember, I've always had a heightened appreciation for design and aesthetics.
My most recent experience has been at Concreit, an early-stage startup where I designed and built the v2 version of their mobile app—used by over 40k+ members and generating almost $1M in real estate investments.
My role involved leading the end-to-end experience for people beginning their real estate investing journey: from signing up to making their first investment. I worked directly alongside the CEO and engineering team to imagine, test, and iterate our way to growth.
Currently, I am a product designer at Proof, where I'm helping to improve growth and retention.
On nights and weekends, I take on interesting projects at my independent design studio Forest Mile.

INTERESTS
My main interest lies at the intersection of taste, creativity, and entrepreneurship. I've always had an entrepreneurial spirit and I'm drawn to the stories of founders that have built great companies.
This led me to start Shaping Taste, a project where I interview leading creatives and entrepreneurs who have harnessed their unique tastes to shape the fields of art, design, fashion, and lifestyle.
While my talents are mainly designing digitally, my inspirations stem from beauty in the outside world. My passion for art, film and fashion plays an indispensable role in my life and continues to inspire the way I think, live and create.
