I’m a digital designer/developer making things at San Francisco Chronicle. Before that, I studied journalism, computer science and design at Northwestern University. I’ve also designed for The Boston Globe and CalMatters.
Like every journalist ever, I tell people I love telling stories. But more specifically, I want to combine storytelling with design and technology to create thoughtful interactive experiences.
Currently:
• reading The Power Broker by Robert Caro
• perfecting my dumpling folds so my mom doesn't laugh at me
• playing through Stardew Valley once again
• eating my way through the Bay Area
Let's chat! :-)
