I am a Solutions Architect at Voltage Control, a bespoke workshop agency. It is my passion to design prototypes and to empower cross-functional teams. Currently, I specialize as a facilitator in the design of prototypes using human-centered design practices. When not exploring new technology, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends while away from computer screens.
Prior to Voltage Control, I founded Reagent Design which worked on augmented reality, architectural rendering, and other progressive digital products. In the past, I was Design Lead for the TEEX Product Development Center where I led a team in the design of disaster response training and emergency management technologies.
Additionally, I served the City of Austin as a Digital Designer. My time in local government was spent developing websites to publish information about infrastructure assets to the public. I have a passion for architecture and hold a Bachelor of Environmental Design from Texas A&M University.
