My career started with making the invisible visible—exhibition visuals, brand films, interfaces for cars and washing machines and credit cards. The medium changed when I moved to New York for my MFA, and again when finance found me. But the question never did: how do you take something complex, and make it feel clear?

Today I ask that question at JPMorgan Chase, designing for advisors and high-net-worth clients in the world of alternative investments. The stakes are higher. The constraints are real. And somehow, it still comes back to the same thing—helping someone understand something they couldn't quite hold before.

Outside of work, I'm deep in the most humbling design project of my life: raising a two-year-old. She's just found her voice—and she uses it freely. No user research prepares you for a person who tells you exactly what she wants, changes her mind mid-interaction, and somehow still makes every iteration worth it.

The rest of my time is spent cooking slow meals, and finding that the best ideas usually arrive somewhere between the kitchen and the quiet.
