Experience
I design digital products that balance user needs with business goals. But design is more than my job, it’s how I approach problem-solving, creativity, and even mentoring others.
Beyond design execution, I’m a strong communicator who excels at presenting ideas with clarity and impact. I ground my work in user research, connecting design decisions to real customer needs while showcasing the business value of each solution. I’m not shy about stepping up in front of leadership teams, executives, or large groups. Presenting and storytelling are core to my process — making complex design decisions clear, engaging, and actionable.
By day, I design intuitive digital products. By night, I’m a lifelong gamer, die-hard Toronto sports fan, and a DJ with over 15 years behind the decks. Design is my career, but creativity flows through everything I do — from building seamless experiences to dropping the perfect track at the perfect moment.
