HELLO,

I am a UX Researcher and Visual Designer with a background in Studio Art, Performance Studies, and Critical Race Studies.

In my work, I prioritize the ethics of being in conversation rather than thinking over with domination. My goal is to decenter whiteness, look around, not ahead, and center accessibility.

I value accountability, substance of styling, and starting with why rather than how. I am ready to iterate, fail, and arrive

I am a UX researcher and designer with a background in Studio Art, Performance Studies, and Critical Race Studies.

Not only do I want to dream, but I also want to work to build new systems rooted in design justice. I can not do this alone. I want to build a new table full of plural voices dedicated to transforming our relationship to success, speed, and safety. If we can create almost anything, what is our moral responsibility? I am committed to living beyond the borders of my life; I want to design systems that will outlive me.
