I'm a UX design lead & documentary filmmaker who cares about creating a more just, kind, and sustainable world. Currently based in Los Angeles, CA ☀︎
As a design lead, I specialize in early spaces (ex: R&D, 0-1 ventures, startups). I clarify strategy with design research & visualizing possibilities to help teams move forward in ambiguity. I’ve worked in subjects from climate intelligence to quantum computing to education to AI’s intersections with accessibility, creativity, & racial equity. I’ve worked at companies large and small, on projects from conception to production. I’ve worked at nonprofits and partnered with local government.
As a documentary filmmaker, I explore stories about people’s relationships with nature and their deeper truths. Films I’ve worked on have premiered at DOC NYC and IDFA, and taken me as far as the Philippines. I’m especially interested in stories of climate justice from the perspective of those most affected by climate change.
Outside of work, I’ve become very interested in gardening & permaculture / regenerative agriculture. ✿ I love hiking and will occasionally climb mountains (like Kilimanjaro & Annapurna). I like to travel, draw, read, experiment with digital & film photography, and love on my people.
