Product design & vision w/ a strong point of view and proven track record

I don’t believe in average experiences. Great products start with a strong, informed POV—about what matters, who it’s for, and what it should feel like to use. I care about emotional resonance as much as usability. Because the best products don’t just work, they stick with you.

From zero to one…and beyond

I thrive in ambiguity.

Whether building from scratch, or helping teams reimagine what already exists, I excel at turning loosely defined ideas into actionable product visions. Using strategic design thinking, research, and storytelling to align stakeholders and carve a clear, compelling path forward.

Research-led, detail obsessed

I’m a zoom-in/zoom-out kind of designer—just as comfortable defining a product’s future as I am tuning a single animation curve. I’m drawn to messy, complex problems and love carving elegant paths through them.

Big picture thinking and able to take it across the line with high-craft pixel-level execution.

Culture isn't a perk—it's the product

Culture isn't a perk—it's the product

The best work doesn’t happen in a vacuum—it’s born from trust, from shared momentum, and from people who genuinely enjoy working together. I’ve always believed that investing in culture isn’t extra, it’s essential. Whether leading design sprints, offsites, hosting team dinners, encouraging lunch together…or finding small ways to create connection day-to-day, I strive to create spaces where people feel safe, seen, and excited to build together.

Because great relationships foster mutual respect—and mutual respect fosters brave, brilliant work.
