I have 4 years of experience as a designer in New York City and Montreal. I’ve worked for tiny startups where things move at breakneck speed, and I’ve also led cross-functional teams with 20+ contributors and stakeholders. As a product designer, I’ve contributed to launching 20+ apps and features at various tech companies. I’m comfortable leading product strategy, jumping in at any stage of product development, and designing useable and accessible digital products.
