About

Classically trained across Paris, Toronto, and New York, with a foundation in craft and a systems-driven approach to design.

Currently completing a Master's in Digital Product Design at Parsons, focused on accessibility, clarity, and building confident user experiences. My perspective is shaped by ADHD and dyslexia, which sharpen how I process complexity, recognize patterns, and design for clarity at scale.

The Journey

Struggled through school. University wasn't a given.
Now completing a Master's in New York.

Nanaimo, Vancouver Island

Grew up in Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, always looking toward the city. Post-secondary schooling was going to be tricky and require accommodations to support how I learn, so I approached things differently. Technology became how I think, create, and build.

Paris + Toronto

At 17 I studied graphic design through Parsons in Paris and saw the world I wanted. At 18 I left the island, moved across the country to Toronto to study technology, and started building toward something bigger.

New York

Moved here this past August and plan to stay. I'm at Parsons School of Design studying Digital Product Design, with a strong focus on accessibility and systems thinking. My dyslexic mind and deep visual foundation give me a perspective that's hard to replicate.
