About Me

I am a UX Designer and Researcher at IBM working to create solutions for enterprise storage needs. Outside of my team, I contribute to and lead side projects that explore prototyping and design for augmented and virtual reality experiences.

I have a BFA in Painting & Printmaking, a MSI in Human-Computer Interaction, and a love for making everything from sculptures and photography to knitting and pies. In my spare time, I like reading dystopian sci-fi novels to my daughter and hiking in national parks.
