Hi there, you can call me Tori...

I grew up in Upstate New York, where my love for design started early—probably somewhere between sketching sneakers in my notebooks and taking things apart just to see how they worked. That curiosity led me to study Industrial Design and Psychology, a combination that shaped how I approach design: always with the user in mind.

I spent years designing footwear and products for brands like Chaco, focusing on blending function, style, and innovation. Over time, I found myself drawn to the world of UI/UX design, where I now apply my background in problem-solving, research, and aesthetics to create seamless digital experiences.

Now based on the lakeshore in Northern Michigan, I’m always looking for new ways to connect great design with real people. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me renovating my eclectic-scandi style home, throwing pottery, feeding my chickens a failed attempt at sourdough, or getting my hands dirty with some kind of creative project. Whether it’s a physical product, a digital interface, or a handmade ceramic piece, I love crafting things that are both beautiful and functional.

Excited to collaborate and bring bold ideas to life!
