Bio

My design focus is on creating research-driven and student-centered learning environments. I am an avid reader, researcher, and trendwatcher, and my knowledge of educational trends and challenges informs every decision I make in analytics, planning, programming, and design. My passion is in working with educators, students, and administrators to optimize academic settings and create inspirational yet functional spaces. I am an ideator, a listener, a teacher, a lifelong learner, and an avid supporter of public education. I am at my best when given opportunities to synthesize, strategize, collaborate, and create environments that inspire innovation in others.
