A product strategist and designer building things that mean something. Chimerical, and made of everyone i've met.
chi·mer·i·cal /kʌɪˈmɛrɪk(ə)l/ · adjective
1. wildly fanciful, highly improbable.
2. relating to or resembling a chimera. (a good word to spell.)
The chimera is a creature from Greek myth: part lion, part goat, part serpent, fused into one improbable whole. Chimerical takes its name from her, a word for anything so fanciful it seems it couldn't be real.
I see myself the same way. A chimera is many creatures in one body, so outrageous it must be a myth. I'm many people in one person, shaped by everyone I've known and every place I've lived, so multi-faceted and grounded in my identities and interests that I couldn't possibly exist, right? So when I say I'm the unorthodox and paradoxical sum of the people around me, I mean it plainly: I'm made of their many parts, yet I reconcile them as one unique being.
My studies and interests take on their own chimerical form:
I studied marketing, design and the business of social impact at Washington University in St. Louis as a John B. Ervin & Oprah Winfrey Scholar, and got my start at Phillips Academy through A Better Chance.
Despite starting in storytelling in marketing, my work has evolved into the odd mix where product strategy, design, and social impact meet. It's grounded in restorative justice, the understanding that knowledge and goodness go hand in hand, and a belief that good products can do real good.
Management Consulting Analyst · Present
Most of my work sits in the public sector, where I turn strategy into things you can measure: defining the KPIs that tell us whether a program is really working, and writing the communications that carry a decision from a slide deck to the people it lands on. I also strategize for our Accenture Ventures practice, advising internal teams on where the company should place its bets across the startup landscape; I run the due diligence, write the investment theses, and build the pitch decks that make the case. Underneath all of it is one instinct: take a tangle of research, politics, and possibility, and render it into something a team can act on.
Director of Product Strategy · 2025
I drive Euno's product from strategy through the build, focused on the UI and the features as they've evolved: the introspection experience, the reflective and social spaces, and the way each new idea turns into something you can actually use. I work where the product meets the person, not in the logic under the agent's hood. Underneath it is a principle I care about: an AI that grows genuinely personal to you without ever training on your data. It learns who you are, and still, your data stays yours.
Minor in Design · Washington University in St. Louis
It begins with intuition and empathy: interfaces that listen, and a design practice that holds many points of view at once. I distrust the single narrow lens. The work I care about is stitched together from many perspectives, the way a person is, until the parts read as one whole.
Consulting, research, and design across social impact
A consulting project for BrightPath STEAM Academy, a nonprofit closing STEAM education gaps for Black youth in North County, St. Louis. In a team of five, I mapped four candidate cities on eleven weighted access variables to recommend where to build, and researched how to protect the founder's hub-and-spoke model through a business-method patent and software copyright.
An interaction-design team project to grow awareness of WashU's Mindfulness Week. I mapped the tension between students' wellness goals and their packed schedules, then designed three interventions: promotional campaigns, a gamified mindfulness-journal app, and a short classroom course.
A brand-strategy competition for CLARVOS, a startup that reads how communities connect emotionally with products. We built the full identity, logo, palette, type, and site, around the Sage, Visionary, and Creator archetypes. It won first place and a $1,500 prize.
For the course Law, Race & Design, our team of four built BRIEF., a tool that makes legal language legible, pulling text from real cases in U.S. history and letting anyone annotate the documents directly.
A design project on corn allergies and the derivatives hidden in everyday products. The response: an HFCS filter for fast-food drinks and “Safe Savings,” an app that rewards allergen-friendly purchases to offset their cost.
A statistics study of private prisons' economics. Using Bureau of Prisons and Vera Institute data, I built Tableau visualizations arguing that private prisons sustain a cycle of recidivism, turning people into passive income, rather than serving the country long-term.
A five-person engagement to grow adoption of Citibank's Home Captain service, proposing a referral-rewards program, a re-scripted email program built around real buyer motivators, and a warmer, faster concierge experience.
A macroeconomics project on how economic shocks reshape social mobility. Using Raj Chetty's Opportunity Insights data, I built an infographic tracing the pandemic's uneven toll: wealthy residents leaving Manhattan cut luxury spending while lower-income spending rose.
