WHAT I DO
I design digital products inspired by how people live in the physical world.
Product Design
End-to-end UX and UI: research, flows, prototypes, and design systems, shipped with engineering across distributed teams.
Product Management
Setting direction and priorities: scoping, roadmaps, and owning features from idea through launch.
Research & Facilitation
Interviews, usability testing, and workshops that keep the work grounded in the people it serves.
SELECTED PROJECTS
What I’ve been working on
Leading design on StreetSmart
Leading Product & UX on a civic app that measures how people experience city streets, taking it from research and prototyping to a shipped MVP under a tight deadline.
PRODUCT + UX DESIGN
UX RESEARCH + STRATEGY
Saving a five-star product from a redesign it didn't need
Leading a two-week research sprint that found the real problem in a DevOps platform, redirecting a costly redesign into a focused roadmap and protecting a product users already loved.
LEARNING EXPERIENCE + LEADERSHIP
Building a leadership on-ramp
Designing a high-school course that draws 100+ underrepresented students toward healthcare leadership and opens a path into BHLI's college programs.
