I’m an interdisciplinary product designer and illustrator dedicated to crafting emotionally resonant experiences for cause-driven products.

I currently lead design for Chime’s MyPay product, supporting the company’s mission to empower everyday people to unlock financial progress by providing access to their paycheck throughout the month.

Before Chime, I was the Head of Design at Roon, a healthcare start-up focused on democratizing health information, where I led the design of an innovative AI-driven product that helps patients and caregivers navigate complex health journeys, providing seamless access to second opinions from doctors and critical support without relying on Google, Reddit, or Facebook Groups.

I also co-founded Desen, a design studio I co-founded between New York and Istanbul that specializes in AI-generated crochet and handmade design objects.
