You cannot create an optimal human experience without empathy and curiosity. As an experience designer, I am driven by a profound belief in the transformative power of thoughtfully crafted interactions. Our purpose as designers is to create change.

How does being queer inform your work?

It has allowed me to view the world with a much wider lens.

What are your favorite pieces of queer visual culture?

Greg Araki's work as an early landmarking queer filmmaker - he tackled really hard, unusual topics. Not everyone's cup of tea, but damn that takes courage.

Which other queer people inspire you?

Ingrid Hu Dahl - she's one of the most inspirational people I've had the pleasure of working and cultivating a friendship with.
