I focus on bringing a user-centered approach to the product design process. I make sure the strategy we have envisioned gets executed.
I have 15+ years of professional experience leading and designing responsive and native mobile products for Enterprise, B2B, SAAS and e-commerce companies.
My specialty is in designing complex systems into modern intuitive web & mobile applications and user interfaces (UI). I can think in big picture systems design ideas down to the details of a flow.
I am co-founder, mentor and teacher of the Design Thinking Orange County Meetup. Our goals are to use design-thinking methodology across various industries and the community. We teach how to use design to solve real world business & design problems.

I am originally from Chicago (a place with real winter), and now live in Orange County, California. Everyone asks me which place I like better. I like both places; they are very different from each other - although you can’t beat the weather in Orange County. I still laugh because so many people here wear flip-flops year round and complain that it is cold when it goes below 60 degrees.
Before I started working in technology, I was a professional classical musician, I played French Horn. I was living in Mexico City for a few years playing in an orchestra there, which is how I learned to speak Spanish
I enjoy keeping current with the constant evolution of tech and design. I research the latest trends and keep up with the design and tech community, a few are listed below.
