About me

As an engaged and detail-oriented collaborator with over 9 years of experience delivering highly polished consumer products at Facebook, Instagram and Amazon, such as camera-based experiences and visual search at Amazon, as well as AR ads in Facebook's newsfeed—I've contributed to creating solutions which scaled to be used by millions worldwide.

My creative passions span product design, user experience, fashion, art, and architecture, with a focus on sustainability and innovation. The core goal of my work is to create meaningful, purposeful experiences that will resonate with my children and contribute to a more sustainable, thoughtful world. This drives me to inspire the next generation, pushing boundaries in design while considering the long-term impact of our work.

I embrace difficult challenges in product design and am comfortable working at the bleeding edge of technology. By deeply understanding user needs and rapidly prototyping intuitive solutions, I've designed experiences which shaped the direction of new product areas, including the first experience at the intersection of AR and commerce for Instagram: Virtual Try On.

I’m a creative leader and multidisciplinary designer, currently working on the Buy with Prime & Multi-Channel Fulfilment team within Amazon's Consumer org and enjoy getting involved early to define product vision and strategy.

Through my career, I strive to develop solutions that not only meet user needs and push technological limits but also foster a better future for coming generations. By blending creativity, technology, and purpose, I aim to leave a positive legacy in the design world and beyond.
