About Me
I'm a UX Engineer who loves building well-crafted, consistent user interfaces that work as well as they look. For the past couple of years, I've been at Highwire, a SaaS company in the construction space, working to bridge the gap between design and development so the final product truly reflects the design vision.
I have a strong focus on design systems, clean code, and making sure details don't get lost along the way. I enjoy collaborating with designers and engineers alike to find practical, scalable solutions that make sense for real users.
Before Highwire, I worked in smaller teams where I was involved across the entire product lifecycle, which gave me a strong appreciation for how design and engineering need to work together—but I've found I'm happiest when I'm focused on that intersection of design and front-end.
Outside of work, I’m usually planning the next place to travel (18 countries so far), while embracing the adventure of new parenthood.
