About
I'm currently Head of Design at Foxglove, where I own design across product, brand, and marketing.
I'm a design generalist. Over the past 15 years I've shipped more than 35 products across autonomous systems, developer tools, AI/ML platforms, and consumer software. Before Foxglove I was Director of Product Design for Autonomy tools at Aurora. Before that I spent 14 years running Sway Design, an independent design practice, working with companies like Zocdoc as their first designer, Volta Charging, Starbucks, Scholastic, the U.S. Green Building Council, and Compass.
I'm drawn to companies tackling hard, physical problems: self-driving systems, developer infrastructure for robotics, and energy performance for the built environment.
I studied at Parsons School of Design and live in San Francisco. Outside of work I draw, paint, and surf.
