I start with people. Then I design the systems around them.

Before transitioning into AI design, I spent five years working in HR at a cybersecurity company, where I grew into a leadership role managing international operations. My work involved navigating compliance requirements, building relationships across diverse teams, and developing metrics to evaluate organizational performance. With a background in psychology, I was especially interested in understanding the deeper needs behind human behavior and how trust and organizational systems shape experiences.

That experience became the foundation for an intentional shift into AI product design. I was drawn to the emerging relationships between people and intelligent systems, particularly technologies designed to listen, remember, and offer guidance. In healthcare and mental wellbeing, these interactions demand careful consideration of safety, consent, human vulnerability, and ethical responsibility.

Today, I apply that perspective to designing and evaluating AI experiences. My work spans UX research, conversational architecture, safety guardrails, consent frameworks, and response evaluation. I've contributed to AI wellbeing platforms and perinatal mental health initiatives, bringing a foundation in human behavior, operational accountability, and ethical decision-making to product development.
