Product designer supporting creators & digital storytellers

I design products where people make, share, and get seen, especially in the nervous moment of putting their work out into the world.


At Apple, I designed video editing experiences for Final Cut Pro and Apple Creator Studio, where some of my favorite work centered on celebrating and empowering filmmakers. At Rivian and Volkswagen, I found the same kind of creators in a different medium, designing AI-powered tools for the engineers and developers who build the vehicles. On campus, I lead the Adobe Student Community, helping students build confidence and express their creativity through accessible digital tools. Whether someone is cutting a film or building a car, I’m driven to close the gap between what they imagine and what they’re able to create.
