I'm a queer designer and gardener who is growing Plantkind and currently living in Oakland, California.

Plantkind↗︎ is an outdoor spatial design company. We design site specific gardens that deepen your relationship with the natural world. Our work is the intersection of native plant palettes and modern built environments for people to gather. The practice of gardening intends to create a more equitable world that honors and provides sustainable ecosystems for all life.

My first job was at Skillshare, a venture-backed education technology startup, starting as UX/UI product design which lead to building the design curriculum and community. Other roles have been with a design-build firm, native plant nursery, national design organization, and branding studio.

In the rest of my time here on the planet I'd like to get into kite flying, kayaking, and jazz. I'm interested in making software, creative tools, and building a modular framework for outdoor structures.
