a bit about me? Well consider me flattered!

I'm Hillary and I'm a product designer and researcher based in Austin, Texas. I hold an MFA in Interaction Design from the School of Visual Arts and a BFA in Interior Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology.

As a native New Yawkuh (sorry, sometimes the accent comes out even over text!), I'm drawn to environments teeming with diverse perspectives and energy. This mindset has driven me to tackle a range of consumer tech projects, from a private search engine to a social connection platform and fintech solutions.

​Prior to product design, I began my career as an interior designer for large-scale hotels around the world, then transitioned into content and marketing strategy for a global exhibition design firm.​
