Hi, welcome to Chili's 🌶

I have 10+ years of experience across several industries: travel & hospitality, music & entertainment, retail, martech, e-commerce, medical publishing, and health insurance, in both brand and product design.

What started out as a high school hobby of designing in PS5 and coding websites in Notepad, I didn’t assume my passion for design could become an actual job until two years into my studies at Belmont University as a Music Business major… and that's when I realized "I can be both analytical and creative."

I've leveraged my educational background into my professional career to effectively translate business objectives into functional and pleasant designs for users.

I am deeply interested in the sustainable impact of design, and ensuring the work we do today does not have a negative impact on the world of tomorrow.

A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America

A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America

A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America

Richard Rothstein

If you inquire into the history of the metropolitan area in which you live, you will probably find ample evidence of how the federal, state, and local governments unconstitutionally used housing policy to create or reinforce segregation in ways that still survive.
