AIRBNB
Staff Experience Designer
2022–2024
As part of Airbnb’s design workshop group, I focused on creating innovative, well-crafted, memorable product experiences for millions of hosts and guests. My work spanned from high-level vision to detailed, launch-ready execution. Featured here are a few selects that I worked on from Airbnb’s product releases over the past few years.
Along with an entire listing editor redesign, we introduced an AI-powered photo tour that automatically organizes hosts’ photos by room
To make tools for Airbnb hosts more enjoyable to use, we added several unexpected moments of delight—like 3D characters to represent the number of guests a host can accommodate

Over the course of more than 7 years at Squarespace I worked across the company’s brand, website, core website builder, and more. Featured here is a collection of work from my role leading product design and creative direction for squarespace.com. The goal? Inspire and guide millions of users to create and grow a beautiful online presence.
I also teach as an adjunct instructor of interaction design at the School of Visual Arts in New York, where I focus on the fundamentals of digital product design, web design, and portfolio development.
