Writing in the 3rd person feels like a documentary.
Most recently I was on the design team at Groove and previously at Kyocera Labs. A majority of my experience has been in b2b and enterprise software where my work focuses on improving productivity.
I value teaching, learning, and buidling collaborative teams. Outside of my 9 to 5, I enjoy giving back to the design community by mentoring designers and career changers on ADPList.
I made that hat.
Debussy and Beethoven are my favorite composers.
When I'm away from my computer you can find me crocheting, snuggling with my cats, reading, camping, or making music. I would call myself a pianist and vocalist who dabbles in guitar. I began teaching piano when I was 17, and I completed my BA in music from UC Berkeley.
I teach piano and vocal lessons to students ages 5 and up. I love helping students build self-confidence through music. Teaching has given me communication and problem solving skills that I bring to cross-functional teams.
