Design found me through curiosity. I took time off to raise my son, started teaching myself web design, and never looked back.

My background in homeopathy shaped how I think. Homeopathic practice means treating the whole person, not the symptom — going to the root cause before reaching for a solution. That's exactly how I approach design problems. I lead with research, ask uncomfortable questions early, and bring user data into every decision.

Human psychology has always fascinated me — how people think, what drives their decisions, where they get stuck. Combined with a lifelong love of art and a foundation in medicine, design became the place where all of it connects.

For 6+ years I've been designing consumer products at Kohl's. Most recently I led the end-to-end redesign of cart and checkout — one of the highest-traffic surfaces in the product — owning research, strategy, concept, A/B testing, and final delivery across web and app. I integrate AI into my research process — using Claude and ChatGPT to synthesize qualitative data faster, surface patterns across user interviews, and pressure-test assumptions before moving into design. It's changed how quickly I can move from insight to direction without losing rigor.

I collaborate closely with product, engineering, and business partners, seek feedback actively, and do my best work when someone challenges my first instinct.

Currently preparing for my next chapter in senior product design.
