About Me

As a designer and facilitator, I've worked with some great teams to create meaningful interactive products. My experience managing design and dev teams is based on a proven, scalable process for large companies and for small start-ups. I like to cultivate healthy, inspirational cultures within projects, teams, and organizations.

• I am spreading the love at Nashville Software School. There’s the night class UI-UX Digital Product Design and I worked with co-instructor Brenda Long on the FEWDD Bootcamp (Front End Web Design & Development).

• I am a Senior Product Designer for Wilmington Trust, part of M&T Bank.

• I was the UX Lead for AllianceBernstein.

• I recently designed and managed the release of Nurse Backpack.

• I created a faux-company project to be able to provide a full idea-to-delivery example for my class that wouldn’t violate any NDAs.

• My team designed the first cable TV app for iPad (Not streaming video. We actually replicated everything you could do on a cable box. It was the number one app at the App Store for a while. Learned so much and invented things as we went. There was no example to copy!)

I am also a co-founder of the Nashville Diaper Connection, which is on a mission to end diaper needs in Nashville's underserved neighborhoods. I am extremely lucky to have found the love of my life and built a large, extended family together — including two fluffy 80+ pound dogs. In a different world, I’d be a full-time glassblower.
