about me

I am, first and foremost, a huge nerd. I am a venture strategist, design researcher, product designer, and mechanical engineer who loves to get my hands dirty in messy problems (literally! I once had a job designing toilets in rural Cambodia). Sustainable hardware is my jam, and I get most excited building solutions that expand more equitable access to essential infrastructure, such as water, sanitation, and energy. My process is highly collaborative, and I believe in putting the needs of communities first (seriously, I could talk all day about community-centered design!).

Outside work, you can catch me squatting heavy weights in the gym, eating all kinds of spicy food in every neighborhood of New York, or scuba diving on a tropical reef.
