What’s my background?

I’ll start from the beginning (sort of)… before my current life as a product designer, I worked in Investment Banking and Asset Management firms where I did things like disclosing firm holdings in publicly traded companies and supporting equity and derivatives traders. Now, you might be wondering how I got into product design from this type of work. Well, it took a lot of soul-searching, networking, and leaning into my unfulfilled passion for art and design. From a very young age, art has always had a large and special place in my life — whether I was watching my brother create architectural models, painting renditions of Georgia O’Keeffe’s work, or spending hours in the printmaking studio in college.
