✧˖°. ⋆｡˚ ABOUT ME ｡･:*˚:✧｡
I design interfaces that facilitate human connection.
I'm a designer who thrives at the intersection of craft, speed, and simplicity. I enjoy solving problems that touch on the everyday consumer and care deeply about building products that use technology for good.
Currently, I'm building a safer experience for teens and creators at Instagram. Previously, I designed creator and discovery experiences at Roblox, helped launch Ember AI as a founding designer, and crafted design systems for early stage startups.
While I'm a digital designer by trade, my work spans multiple mediums and disciplines–editorial design, animation, art direction, fine art. I'm always open to collaborating on projects across fashion, entertainment, and tech.
I'm based in NYC, but I grew up on the ☀︎ kissed streets of San Diego, CA. I studied computer science and fine arts at Brown University. I like tangerines, existential fiction, and The Marias.

The problem
Discovery of games was rudimentary
Roblox currently has over 200 million MAU and over 60 million DAU. Despite the large user base, finding new games to play was tedious and static. The previews of the games were not very representative, and the recommendations were more focused on overall popularity rather than personalized content–users had to rely on trial and error or word of mouth. Similarly, game developers had very little control over how to promote their games on platform.
The solution
Activate SFV across all discovery surfaces
Capitalize on the lightweight format of short-form video, while utilizing Roblox’s unique 3D nature to push users towards discovering new games. Currently users are turning towards external platforms like YouTube to view moments that are captured and shared in-game. Keeping the social media flywheel within the platform increases user engagement and playtime.
