About Me
I'm a digitial product designer with 7+ years of experience creating tools that simplify complexity and deliver real business impact. At Aurora Solar, I lead UX for our commercial solar platform, HelioScope–where I design thoughtful, scalable tools that help commercial solar professionals streamline complex workflows and achieve their business goals.
I take a strategic, systems-thinking approach to design, balancing user needs, technical constraints, and business goals. I thrive in discovery work–engaging with customers to uncover real problems and validate solutions early. I advocate for design at every stage and collaborate closely across product and engineering.
In previous roles, I’ve led initiatives that supported funding rounds, fueled product-led growth, and improved core product experiences. My work is driven by curiosity, clarity, and a commitment to building intuitive, empowering tools.
Outside of work, I’m a trail runner, artist, and nature enthusiast–always recharging in the wild 🍃
