I lead design in mission-driven organizations.

Currently at Assessment for Good, building social-emotional learning games for Black and Latinx kids; next, looking for design leadership at an early-stage company in climate, civic, education, or health.

My role at Assessment for Good wraps at the end of June 2026. Alongside that, I'm a Climatebase Fellow, working on an early childhood climate science game.

Before that

I joined Geode Capital, an $850 billion asset manager, to help rebuild their internal product operations. I hired and led a team of three, one UX Researcher and two Product Designers. Within a year we shipped a suite of fund management tools that replaced disconnected legacy systems.

Before Geode, I was Director of Design in HubSpot's marketing department. I led a team of six, partnering closely with the Directors of Engineering and Video, and worked with the product team to unify our design systems. By the end of my tenure we shipped a coherent system of marketing experiences serving millions of monthly visitors.

My first leadership role was at Lighter, a nutrition startup, where I helped build the app and ship a Whole Foods white-label. I started teaching at General Assembly around the same time and found a passion for teaching.

Way back

Before joining Lighter, I cofounded Brand Hack with a fellow entrepreneur. Our custom-built creative teams gave startups everything they need to launch—name, logo, deck, website, portraiture, pitch language—in a single eight-hour sprint. I learned how to lead cross-functional creative teams under real pressure and ambiguity.

Brand Hack grew out of Thinkside, a solo studio working with small businesses and nonprofits—logos, websites, the full range. There I refined my craft and learned how much design shapes the way a business grows.

In the beginning

I started in publication design after a BFA in Graphic Design from Boston University, working on books, catalogs, and early websites at a small studio. After a few years there, I went out on my own.
