I’m a designer and innovation lead. Previously, Senior Product Designer, UNICEF Office of Innovation.

 
 
 
 
 

My favorite way of working is plugging into teams. When you need one more project lead, prototyper, design researcher or strategist, that’s where I come in. I’m your plus one.

As a designer, researcher, instructor and facilitator, I bring a diverse design and social innovation background focusing on a human-centered approach to crafting products and services. Recent work includes product design and research empowering a community of 20 million young people with the UNICEF Office of Innovation, redesigning refugee resettlement service with the the International Rescue Committee, with Alight to design new ways for listening to refugee feedback in Uganda and Rwanda, and with IDEO.org to reimagine how to teach design thinking to a community of social innovators.
