I design, build, and grow world-class brands and effective teams.
I'm currently leading brand and growth design as Executive Creative Director at Handshake. Previously, I led brand design at Grammarly and scaled the brand design team, systems, craft, and communications as they launched their enterprise business and grew from $43 million to over $250 million in revenue.
Before that, I was the first brand designer at Reddit where I built the first visual systems, libraries, principles, and creative directed their first major integrated campaigns and launches including their native app. I've also worked with editorial teams and art-directed features on Wired, Techcrunch, Yahoo News, and more.
I’ve worked with brands like Uber, Capgemini, Olympus, Winnie Labs, and more—and currently advise early-stage founders at Blume Ventures and Sequoia India (now Peak XV Ventures) on design hiring, design systems, product, growth, brand design, and marketing. I am based in Oakland, California.

I design, build, and grow world-class brands and effective teams. I'm currently Executive Creative Director at Handshake, leading brand and enterprise growth design.
Previously at Grammarly I grew a team of 2 to a high performing brand design studio of over 20, collaborating with over 100 marketers and stakeholders to craft highly effective, distinct, and memorable experiences for all audiences at scale, launching new products and take new revenue streams to market, as they grew from $43M to over $250M in revenue.
I was the first brand designer at Reddit where I built foundational visual systems, libraries, principles, and creative directed their first major integrated campaigns and launches including their native app. I've also worked with editorial teams and art-directed features on Wired, Techcrunch, Yahoo News, and more.
