About me

After working professionally as a contemporary ballet dancer for nearly 10 years, I changed paths to pursue a career in design. I now hold a BA in design from OCAD University in Toronto.

Since graduating (with distinction) in 2022, I have worked on projects in both the public and private sectors, from banking and healthcare to education and political engagement.

I use my broad design skillset to understand people and systems, co-design with stakeholders, and develop human-centred services and products. I thrive on the collaborative and process-based nature of the work, and am inspired by the possibility of creating a more equitable, joy-filled, and sustainable society.

I am currently working as a product designer for a non-profit that helps Canadians understand and navigate federal grant programs, among other initiatives.
