I'm currently designing the future of communication for over 1 billion people at Google Messages, Android's texting app.
With over 10+ years of professional creative experience, my design journey led me to wear many hats - graphic designer, in-house illustrator, packaging artist, marketing design manager, solo product designer, front-end prototyper, and now, a collaborative UX designer in a vibrant team. My varied design path taught me to love every step, from ideas to impact. This big-picture view lets me tackle problems differently, always with users and business goals in mind.
Outside of tech, I leverage my design expertise to support a select number of small businesses with branding initiatives. Interested? Reach out to see if we’re a good fit! I’d love to hear from you.

Google Messages
At Google Messages, I lead design for the Media & Expression team - think playful voice bubbles, expressive reactions, and seamless photo editing – that's my playground! I also led design for all things AI and ML, where I focused on making tech approachable & helpful for everyone.
