I grew up in Florida, always drawing and sharing my creations with classmates. I loved getting lost in the details and then stepping back to see the bigger picture—it was pure joy. That love for drawing turned into a passion for design. I moved from comics to computers, experimenting with everything from flyers and websites to photography and video. By the early 2000s, I got my first paid job doing what I loved—and I’ve never looked back.

In college, I studied digital art at Stetson University. It was one of the few places blending art, design, animation, music, and tech within a liberal arts setting. There, I dove deep into the early web, user interfaces, and the storytelling magic of Disney. That sparked a lasting interest in creating useful, engaging digital experiences.

I knew I needed to be where great work was happening, so I moved to New York City. I started as a designer and went on to work across advertising, editorial, and product design. After a decade in NYC, I took a leap and moved to San Francisco to join Apple—a truly rewarding chapter of my career.

Over the years, I’ve worked with people from all over the world and across many disciplines. I’ve learned that great design starts with empathy. Trends may shift, but solving problems for everyday people is the core of our work. Technology should serve everyone, not just the few. Today, after 15+ years in the field, I’ve launched products, shaped design teams, and helped build creative cultures where people do their best work. I’m grateful for the journey—and always excited for what’s next.
