She combines full-stack fluency—from backend APIs in .NET Core and Python/Django to polished iOS apps in Swift and UIKit—with strong UX sensibilities honed through prior design and video production work. At VMware she continues to deliver production iOS features, and previously led iOS efforts and cross-stack feature work at Formation and CEDR, improving modularity and user feedback flows.

A lifelong problem solver motivated by creativity, she pairs mentorship experience with a track record of refactoring for reuse and shipping measurable UX improvements. She also brings an uncommon mix of media production and formal web/fullstack training, making her adept at translating design intent into delightful, maintainable code.
