About
With over 14 years of experience, my work spans digital product design, brand identity, and experience strategy, with a focus on getting new ventures off the ground.
Today, as the founding designer at Recidiviz, I design catalytic systems that reduce the number of people incarcerated in the U.S. I established the initial team, our design standards, and the foundational product that made this mission scalable. Over our first four years, these efforts helped improve the living conditions of more than 100,000 people navigating the criminal justice system.
Previously, I ran an independent studio building brands and products for select clients. Before that, as a design lead at Google, I shaped the growth surfaces and city-scale programs that helped Waze double its user base to 110M MAUs, while also defining the commuter experience for a broader smart-cities initiative within Area 120.
Outside of my career, you’ll find me at the community garden or curating overly specific lists. Having spent my childhood in the Caribbean and my adolescence in California, I find rainy days beautifully nostalgic, but freezing winters are my nemesis.
