My experience involves a little bit of everything


Elevator Pitch

After living and working in Chicago, IL for over a decade, I moved closer to family in Iowa when the ability to work remotely became more of the norm. I'm currently working as the Lead Product Designer for the agriculture startup Tillable, surrounded by a bunch of smart and innovative folks.

I take pride in creating clean, logical and intuitive user interfaces and experiences. I enjoy the entire creative process from ideation to final product, and the collaboration along the way. I'm passionate and proud about my work, and very picky about every detail, big or small.

Education

I have a Bachelor's Degree from Coe College, with majors in Art and Business Administration. 

I completed a Masters of Science in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) from DePaul University. While pursuing my Masters degree, I continuously looked to integrate what I was learning into my full-time job. Although it was a super busy few years, that proved to be the most beneficial way for me to take the skills and knowledge from the classroom to a real project.
