About

Hey all! For over 10 years, I've done print, branding, web, and product design. I've been lucky to work at places like Segment, Facebook, and Bleacher Report. I had a short stint in NFTs at TopShot. Right now I'm the Chief Design Officer at a pre-seed startup called Totem. I head our product design, user research, and our marketing and growth efforts (you know how startups go lol). At Totem, Our mission is to create a new tradition of Native wealth-building. We’re partnering with sovereign tribal governments to deliver culturally relevant financial products and education, make tribal benefits more accessible, and help the growing number of self-identifying Natives born off-res connect to culture.
