Experience Design & AI Product Strategy
Background
Background
I'm a design and strategy leader who works at the intersection of product experience, AI, and business outcomes. I've spent nearly a decade helping organizations design, build, and scale digital products across enterprise technology, healthcare, financial services, and automotive.
My path started in product design but evolved as I realized that craft alone doesn't move the needle. The best products succeed because of clear systems thinking, sharp strategy, and obsessive attention to how people experience the work, from first click to full adoption. That's what I focus on: designing the whole arc, not just the interface.
I've led the experience design that scaled an AI platform to 7,800 users, built a developer portal that doubled engineering velocity, driven a DTC strategy that unlocked 5X growth, and managed an enterprise migration of 31,000 people with zero critical errors. The pattern across all of it: treat design as a business discipline, stay close to the data, and never stop asking whether the thing you built is actually being used.
Philosophy
Design Philosophy
Design is a business discipline.
If the product doesn't move a metric, the design didn't work. I tie every decision, from information architecture to interaction patterns, to adoption rates, error reduction, and time to value. Beautiful work that doesn't drive outcomes is a portfolio piece, not a strategy.
Start with the system, not the screen.
The best solutions come from understanding how the whole thing fits together: the technology, the people, the organizational dynamics. I think in systems and design in details. That's how you get products that are elegant to use and practical to build.
Enterprise users deserve great design.
The person using your internal tool at 3pm just used a consumer app at noon. They know what good feels like. Complexity is real, but it's not an excuse. I design enterprise experiences with the same rigor and craft, because clarity scales and confusion compounds.
Process
How I Work
I start by understanding the real problem. Not the one in the brief, but the one that emerges when you talk to the people closest to the work. I spend time with stakeholders, end users, and the engineers who'll build it. That's where the useful information lives.
Then I move fast and stay precise. Prototype early, test with real people, measure what matters. I work across product, engineering, and leadership. Not in a handoff, but in the room together. Design decisions are better when they account for technical constraints and business realities from the start.
The work doesn't end at launch. I also think through adoption: onboarding, communication, rollout strategy. A product that ships but sits unused is a product that failed. I design for outcomes, not deliverables.

Have something you're working through?
I'm always interested in hard problems. The kind where good design, clear strategy, and smart execution all have to come together.
