I'm Anna, an industrial designer living and working in New York City.

I'm a Senior Industrial Designer based in New York City with over five years of experience bringing ideas from concept to production. My work spans consumer products, packaging, soft goods, experience design, and health and wellness. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines and working through every stage of the design process, turning complex ideas into thoughtful, manufacturable products.


I graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a Bachelor of Design, receiving University and College Honors.


My approach considers how products exist within larger systems, balancing real-world context, usability, manufacturing, and long-term impact. I believe the best solutions are shaped by curiosity, collaboration, and a deep understanding of the people who use them.


Outside of client work, I enjoy exploring new materials and processes through ceramics, where making by hand continues to inform the way I think about form, craftsmanship, and product experience
