I’m an evidence-oriented designer working towards a more just and sustainable world.

I work at the intersection of behavioral science and service design to help organizations implement climate solutions. If that sounds like you, please get in touchI’m always happy to chat with fellow practitioners.

I’m currently a Senior Service Designer at PPL Electric Utilities.

Most recently, I was a Service and Intervention Designer with The Policy Lab at Brown University and an Academic Affiliate with the Office of Evaluation Sciences in the General Services Administration.

Not all of my recent work is publicly available at the moment. In the meantime, here are links to a selection of externally published case studies for projects I completed with both organizations.

I’m also getting more designers involved in climate solutions.

Designers are in a unique position to support climate mitigation and adaptation by helping implement and scale evidence-based solutions.

In addition to project work, I’ve mentored for CleanTeach Open Northeast and served as a team lead for Work on Climate and a chapter lead for Climate Designers.
