About Me

As a Senior Strategist at Jump, I advise leaders at Fortune 500 companies to help them tackle ambiguous growth challenges in times of rapid change. I work at the intersection of research, design, and strategy to help folks better understand the world, then make better decisions. I also get to spend some time teaching Needfinding to future innovators at Stanford.

With a background in design engineering at Northwestern and experience designing products for Intralox and KiwiCo, I ground all of my work in human-centered design practices and systems thinking.

Outside of the office, you can find me deep in a fantasy football spreadsheet, trying to get into running, and hanging out with my pal Koda.
