About

Intro

Lead UX Designer at 3M Safety & Industrial. I run design tokens across 12 sub-brands and build agentic pipelines that carry them from Figma into production packages for React, Angular, and .NET.

Ten years across visual design, cinematography, solid modeling, and software, with work for 3M, Dell, AMD, UCSF, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HEB, and the State of Wisconsin.

Outside work: 3D-printed enclosures, ESP32 hardware, video.
