Leading Design Systems strategy at Discovery Education while cultivating high-performing, cross-functional teams through strategic mentorship, and collaborative leadership

With 15 years of experience as a digital designer, I’ve had the opportunity to build brand experiences, user interfaces, and websites that inspire, educate, and engage. My career began in web design, where I developed an appreciation for how brands express themselves visually. Over time, I expanded my expertise into motion design, bringing visual elements to life and enhancing digital experiences.

Curiosity has always fueled my journey—exploring new techniques, refining strategies, and connecting each discipline along the way. This continuous learning process is what keeps my passion for design alive and evolving.
