Experienced Product Designer

Beyond aesthetics—design that turns complex problems into simple, thoughtful moments of understanding and connection.

Skillset

I lean into interaction & visual design but can confidently run research & usability studies. I use Figma on a daily basis and know my way around a design system (and can create one if needed).

I'm also fluent in marketing & product strategy, which makes me a great cross-functional partner. I can even code a bit, which helps me collaborate with engineers.

With 15 years of experience in product design, I've led and contributed to design teams across startups, enterprises, and open-source communities. From UX strategy to hands-on execution, I've helped shape products at companies like MetaMask, The Trade Desk, and Pivotal.
