Hello- I’m an Oakland, CA based UX designer and systems thinker working at the intersection of psychology, information architecture, and real-world product delivery. I'm excited to share that I'm available for part-time, contract, or fractional product design engagements. My work focuses on designing clarity without flattening complexity, helping people and teams turn overlapping ideas, constraints, and human needs into calm, usable digital systems. I’m especially drawn to work that sits at the margins: multi-disciplinary products, values-driven teams, and experiences that don’t fit neatly into templates or one-size-fits-all frameworks. You can visit my portfolio here: _Website not available. Sign in: https://www.twine.net/signup_ A core part of my practice is rapid, implementation-minded UX prototyping. I design with real technical, operational, and QA constraints in mind, producing developer-ready UX outputs that reduce translation loss between design and engineering. Rather than stopping at idealized mockups, I prototype interaction states, edge cases, and flows that can move directly into build, refinement, and testing- supporting faster iteration and more durable outcomes. This approach has allowed me to ship real, production products, not just concept demos, and to work effectively at the seam between UX, front-end implementation, and validation. Teams I work with value that my designs survive contact with reality: they’re grounded, buildable, and thoughtful about what happens after launch. Alongside product work, I run Studio Margins, an independent design practice focused on building calm, coherent websites and digital spaces for people whose work spans multiple identities, offerings, or roles. The practice centers information architecture, pacing, and restraint- designing structures that can hold complexity without forcing simplification. Studio Margins informs how I approach product design more broadly: listening first, mapping systems carefully, and making intentional tradeoffs in service of real humans. Across roles, I’m known for: -Strong information architecture for complex systems -Systems thinking that connects content, interaction, and behavior -Human-centered design grounded in lived experience -Content strategy and editorial restraint -UX strategy that bridges vision and execution I look forward to collaborating with you; please don't hesitate to reach out if you think we can create something awesome together.…Hello- I’m an Oakland, CA based UX designer and systems thinker working at the intersection of psychology, information architecture, and real-world product delivery.
