DESIGN
Through a research-based approach to design and storytelling, I strive to create experiences that cultivate meaningful and accessible interactions at the intersection of art and technology.
In my role as Senior Designer at Ad Hoc LLC working on government digital experiences for the Department of Veterans Affairs, I lead in-person and remote research and design direction, develop design artifacts and research prototypes, and identify and address Veteran concerns and accessibility shortcomings to work towards ideal user experiences.
