I create products where people make, share, and get seen.

I'm a senior at San Jose State University studying new media and generative art. As a creator myself, I know what it feels like to make something, paired with the stress of putting it out into the world. Designing for people in that moment is what I find most fulfilling.


Previously, I worked at Apple, designing video editing experiences for Final Cut Pro and Apple Creator Studio, where some of my favorite work centered on celebrating and empowering filmmakers. I also explored the automotive industry at Rivian and Volkswagen, designing AI-powered tools that helped engineers and developers work more effectively. On campus, I lead the Adobe Student Community, helping students build confidence and express their creativity through accessible digital tools. Across every role, I'm driven to close the gap between what people imagine and what they're able to create.
