I am a design strategist with a passion for telling complex stories and helping businesses achieve their goals through creative design solutions. 

​

Since the beginning of my undergraduate studies, I sought to work at the intersection of business and design and never let go of that conviction, despite professors and managers telling me one has nothing to do with the other. Throughout my career, I worked against the grain to build bridges between those two worlds to prove that design deserves a seat at the boardroom table. Most notably I did this in my most recent role at NBCUniversal by building my own job to support the executive leadership teams of Global Media Operations & Operations & Technology. 

 

I started my career in design strategy in New York, then spent a few years in Los Angeles, and most recently moved to Chicago. But despite my urban living tendencies, I love the outdoors. Given a free weekend, there is a good chance I might be found hiking, building my own furniture, practicing yoga, and dancing at music festivals.

 

Currently, I am delighted to be attending the Institute of Design at IIT to earn my Masters in Design Methods. My goal with this intensive one year program is to further enhance my knowledge of design methodologies, so I can address more complex business challenges, drive deep change in organizations, and deliver greater value to customers. I want to help make things that matter.
