User Experience | Product design

Dallas-based designer with experience in graphic design, UX design, and front-end development. I love great design and learning new ways to delight viewers and communicate the values and messages of my clients. When I’m not tinkering on a design or code, you can find me reading a book, cooking, traveling with my family, or running after my two kids.
