I design with purpose, lead with empathy, and build toward equity.

My work sits at the intersection of technology, humanity, and systems change. I believe design isn't just about solving problems—it's about asking better questions, creating space for voices too often ignored, and shaping futures that are more just, more inclusive, and more alive with possibility. Through research, storytelling, and strategy, I help teams navigate complexity, center lived experience, and bring bold, ethical ideas to life—
