About Me

I'm a designer who understands the full lifecycle of a digital product — from the financial ROI to the technical pipeline and the final user experience.

As a former AAA Game Art Project Manager, I managed large-scale art assets and cross-functional teams on major titles. Now pursuing my MFA in Interactive Media at the University of Miami, I bridge the gap between production thinking and creative execution.

My work spans asymmetric multiplayer games, police body-cam UX systems, VR environments, and physics-based combat — unified by a belief that constraint breeds creativity.

An Android-based system prototype for 3.2-inch displays. Integrated physical hardware controls (PTT, recording sliders) with digital operations — enabling one-touch emergency broadcasting, covert recording, and privacy modes. Designed under extreme constraints: legibility at 229 ppi, one-handed operation, glove-friendly touch targets.
