Hi, I’m a designer living in Seattle.

I’m currently a Senior Product Designer at Friends From The City where I’m helping Veterans with debt resolution.

I have a background in creating user-friendly experiences in the non-profit sector and use design and code to make a positive impact. I value human-centered design and believe that good design must be equitable, inclusive, and beautiful.

If you’d like to get in touch, email me.

Seattle Urban Academy

Seattle Urban Academy is a positive, educational community where students overcome risks to graduate and succeed in life. They were in need of a new website to appeal to prospective students and donors and move away from the old site’s negative voice and visuals.

The redesign focused on engaging prospective students and donors with positive imagery and messaging that showcased the SUA family. I simplified the navigation and integrated a digital volunteer solution that connects with Salesforce. I was also responsible for the front-end development and integration with Forestry.io, a static git-based CMS.

Remember A Pet

Remember a Pet is a personalized pet sympathy card ordering service. Its primary audience is veterinary clinics. I was responsible for the visual design and front end development of the site. I worked with a software engineer and we built the site on top of Shopify. It was launched in March of 2016 and I’ve had the opportunity to work on and watch it grow.

World Concern

In 2013, I led the redesign of World Concern’s website with a small but talented team consisting of a developer and a writer. We transformed the static website into a user-friendly, responsive experience, helping to solidify World Concern’s reputation as a trustworthy nonprofit. One of my primary objectives was to use rich imagery to help convey the story of World Concern and its beneficiaries. By telling visually compelling stories of transformation, the redesign helped to increase fundraising revenue by 14% and conversion rates by 123% year over year. Following the redesign, I’ve also been responsible for maintaining and upgrading the website for each new fundraising campaign. In 2017, I implemented a new donation platform that integrated with Salesforce.
