Product Designer

Born and raised in Silicon Valley with 2 years of experience focusing on UX design. From 2016-2021, I designed live learning experiences for diverse Gen-Zers (AKA teaching). I joined the innovative Khan Lab School in 2021, where I met PhD-neuroscientist-mom, Dana Kravchick, who was revolutionizing how schools do data. After retraining in UX/UI design, I joined Dana's company, Wavio, as its first designer.

In addition to educational technology, my expertise spans products in artificial intelligence, fintech, e-commerce, and social good.
