Product designer and curious creator, I'm a designer who excels in strategic thinking, creative problem solving and product strategy. My strengths lie in the complex, nitty gritty design problems.

You can often find me creating videos on YouTube channel, tweeting, sharing design thoughts on Instagram, podcasting on Design Life or hosting livestreams or mentor sessions. I'm passionate about giving back and teaching what I know so you may find me a regular attendee and speaker at conferences, meetups.

Outside of work I enjoy hiking and camping, spending time with my dog (Kaya), cooking Ottolenghi recipes and cycling. I'm currently living in Toronto, Canada and working full time as a product designer at Uber Eats.

Resume.

Design Educator, YouTube

I began my YouTube channel in 2019 as a way to teach design to the next generation of designers. My channel focuses on product design and user research. This has been a fun and rewarding side project as I've been able to connect with designers all over the world and help them grow in their design career.

Co-host, Design Life Podcast

Design Life is a podcast about design and side projects for motivated creators. It was born after my host Charli Prangley and I, two serial side project addicts, saw a gap in the podcast market for a conversational show about design and the issues young creatives face, that was hosted by two women.
