Design Director & Technical Leader building the future of design systems at Avail

I bridge the gap between design and engineering, leading cross-functional teams to build scalable design systems that power consistent user experiences. Currently heading product design at Avail while architecting our in-house design system with a team of engineers and designers.

Creating welcoming web experiences for nonprofits to expand their reach and donor engagement.

I believe the best design systems emerge from the intersection of:

• Technical Excellence — Clean, performant, accessible code
• Design Thinking — User-centered component APIs and documentation
• Team Collaboration — Building bridges between design and engineering cultures
