What I do
I design products from early concept through launch, helping teams turn messy ideas into real experiences. I’ve led and contributed to large scale product work, including designing core learning features, messaging systems, and design systems used across multiple teams. My work can include:
Defining problems, mapping user journeys, and aligning design decisions with both user needs and business goals.

A bit about me…
I originally moved from New Zealand to the United States to play Division I college golf, an experience that shaped the way I approach challenges today. Competing at that level taught me discipline, resilience, and the value of constant iteration. These lessons translate naturally into my work as a designer.
Outside of design, I coach junior golfers, helping young players develop both their skills and confidence. When I’m not at my computer or on the course, you’ll usually find me in the kitchen baking cakes and experimenting with recipes on cozyeating.com, my small baking website. I also love spending time with my two dogs and three cats, Bobi, Po, Leaf, Halo & Luna who keep life entertaining at home.
I’m someone who enjoys building things, whether that’s thoughtful digital products, creative side projects, or desserts from scratch.
