Hello, my name is Joe.

I'm a product designer working on the future of legal technology—currently leading design for DISCO Case Builder. I work with brilliant cross-functional partners to create thoughtful user experiences. I'm focused on designing responsible solutions that genuinely improve lives.

Creative methodology

Designers are uniquely positioned to influence people’s lives and shape society. Therefore, good design must be responsible and thoughtful. In creating user experiences, I focus on building accessible solutions crafted for long-term, positive social impact. I do this by leveraging UX research and driving deep cross-functional collaboration.

Causes and orgs I'm supporting

I believe I have a responsibility to promote and empower the people doing society's most impactful work. I'm privileged to be able to redirect 4% of my monthly income to an array of organizations whose work I value. 1% goes directly to abortion funds and organizations fighting for women's rights. Each month I choose the remaining 3% from a mix of the following organizations, among others:

📚 → Malala Fund

✊🏼 → SPLC (Southern Poverty Law Center)

💜 → The Trevor Project

⚖️ → EJI (Equal Justice Initiative)

🇺🇸 → ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union)

✊🏼 → Planned Parenthood + Center for Reproductive Rights

🎓 → Guadalupe Center of Immokalee
