Product design collaboration is where I thrive — I really do feel people and partnerships first and foremost create the best experiences for both users and people building the product.

I have a strong visual design aesthetic and background, as that is the foundation in which I grew my love for all things design. My focus on people came from my time spent as a teacher and working in community-based non-profits, and so experience is not secondary, but goes hand-in-hand.

I'm a refugee from Vietnam, coming over in the 90s, and I would gladly trade a family eggroll recipe for your favorite recipe that makes you smile.

I love to fish, hike, forage for mushrooms in the forest, garden, grow fruit, pick fruit, eat fruit, laugh, and make others laugh.
