About

I'm a freelancer for all kinds of projects ranging from technical startups and digital products to experiential marketing and special events. I started a startup in college, nurtured a growing entrepreneurship community on campus, organized one of the nation's largest hackathons, and worked at an agency and an e-commerce startup.


Some more recent highlights: I created a design system and rebranded a marketplace, I replatformed a custom e-comm store to Shopify, and spent last summer in Europe (cliche, I know, yawn!).


Welcome to my website. Proper blog and portfolio coming soon, but in the meantime if you'd like to connect about working together or being friends, drop a line here or on Instagram.

A Few Little Treats

An ongoing list of links and things while the rest of this place is under construction (including but not limited to things I'm trying to plug!):

A new playlist for your mornings, curated by yours truly! Featuring a lot of UK jazz and R&B. The vibes are: softly groovy, chill, easy, slow. I made Morning Playlist No. 1 late last year, it's a little slower and heavily inspired by Lianne La Havas.

Something I've been thinking about a lot is a regression of individual style and taste. This episode with guest Kyle Chayka (author of "Filterworld: How Algorithms Flattened Culture") put a lot of my questions, thoughts, and concerns into words.

New favorite cookbook!! A more technical book by one of my favorite chefs, Sohla gets into the weeds with some food science and the chemistry of it all.

A Spotify playlist inspired by, you guessed it, my favorite Korean DJ queens. House, EDM, etc; good music to work to if you're into that kind of thing, vibey and (mostly) without lyrics.
