I currently support collaboration tools and lead design operations for PNC Private Bank products. We design experiences for Private Bank clients and their financial advisor teams.

2020-2023

I was an Adjunct instructor at Carnegie Mellon University for Communication Design Fundamentals. I facilitated lectures, demonstrations, and critiques, in addition to creating and refreshing course materials for the Department. My philosophy as a professor is to guide students to learn through the design process.

2019-2021

I completed my Masters in Interaction Design at Carnegie Mellon University. During this time I received two international design awards from Core77 in the Consumer Technology division and was recognized with the School of Design Merit Award.

2016-2019

For three-and-a-half years I worked in marketing and creative management. I implemented two large rebrands and collaborated with brand systems, in-house creative teams, editorial teams, and internal and external stakeholders. I managed all University print and online marketing materials. I supervised one full-time designer, one design intern, and three to four design contractors and also established the department’s first design internship program which staffed six internships during my tenure.
