Information

I design with intention and empathy, crafting personal experiences that are filled with delight, wonder, and love. I focus primarily on designing interfaces and websites, but also have a background (and education) in web development, fine art, branding, editorial design, and art direction.

Currently, I am the founding Head of Design at Biography, which raised a $5.5 million seed round at a $30 million dollar valuation. Before that, I was at Sea12 Industries, which raised a $15.1 million dollar pre-seed valuation, and other organizations and startups such as the Yale Law School, Volta, and Cimu.

Outside of the tech world, I dabble in the music industry, designing and creative directing for labels such as Sony Music and artists such as Alice Longyu Gao and khatumu. I also lead Yale's only undergraduate design studio, Design at Yale. I love making printed matter and ephemera; if you've spent some time in New Haven, maybe you've seen them around!

In my free time, you can catch me making music, rock climbing, scrolling through Are.na, DJing, playing Magic: the Gathering, drafting Substacks I'll never post, committing to bits, doing laundry, organizing my playlists, and staring at the ceiling.

It's nice to meet you!
