As Head of User Experience at Kinspire Health, a Pediatric OT virtual healthcare startup, I led the rebranding of the app, emphasizing cohesion and engagement. Through in-depth research, I understood the unique needs of caregivers and therapists, shaping UX strategies for both sides of the application, and ensuring a tailored and seamless experience. My data-driven approach, guided by analytics and feedback, resulted in more personalized and efficient designs. I also implemented a design strategy aligned with the company's vision, considering the entire user experience, both on and off-screen. These efforts not only improved the functionality and aesthetics of the app but significantly enhanced user satisfaction and engagement.

In September of 2020, I joined the Oculus Launch Pad program; this program from Facebook Reality Labs aims to inspire diversity of thought in the VR community by helping people from different backgrounds break into VR.

I founded Lightseed to create novel, safe, and inclusive multiplayer XR environments and handheld apps for healthy and educational outcomes. We produce both proprietary and client work, continuing to improve the tools, skills, and connections I made while working at Night & Day. For our clients I take only those requests where digital solutions make sense and where my experience in special-case design can make a real difference. For our proprietary projects I identify unsolved and emerging issues where we can advance the field through our prototypes and completed products.

As Creative Director at Night & Day Studios, I built and managed teams of illustrators, animators, modelers, sound designers, composers, voiceover actors, and UI designers. I led concept development, UX, and game design efforts for more than 60 apps, 20 of which have been extensively featured by Apple. I also managed client presentations and relationships with technology partners including Amazon, Apple, and Samsung. (Along the way I invented the baby-gate that Apple recommends for mobile apps to prevent children from accessing payment and other adult features.) My designs included several bestselling apps that were the only indie products able to compete with the major studios. Finally, I oversaw the consumer research, redesign, and style-guide development effort for the Peekaboo Barn brand, which led to a successful licensing program that included a tabletop game, a collection of board books, and a line of plush toys.
