About Me

I have been a product first person since 2015, working in mostly web marketing/development and data. I have also taken on multiple supporting roles within advertising, content management, and web design. I strive to optimize work flows through automation where suitable to relieve developers and allow them to focus on valuable product building and improvements.

Previously I was an interior designer, focusing on space planning and creating 3D plans. I also love 3D printing :)
