About
Growing up in a family of artisans, entrepreneurs and fashion merchants I have a unique understanding of the impact of design and creativity. As an art director and designer,  I'm forever exploring new ways to engage audiences—combining AI and emerging technologies with traditional art and production methods to deliver own-able systems that scale and garner eyeballs.

When not in front of a screen or in maker-mode, I'm growing organic veggies in my community garden, on the hunt for the sourest sourdough bread in San Francisco, and looking forward to my next trip to the mountains. ⛷️
