Hello and welcome

I'm a staff product design generalist building for millions of users. I shape design vision, then create scalable solutions that unlock business value without compromising quality. Most recently I led design for Ediscovery search facilities at CS Disco, where my work drove tens of millions in revenue.

Driving cross-functional partnership

Not a prompt and pixel pusher… a committed, strategic partner. I love working with people who think differently than me, toward a common goal. Success is shared.

Vision and design communication

I shape and share vision, managing stakeholder emotions in service of alignment. Relationship building is central to my process. Good design is well-communicated design.

Key strengths in design

I bring a well-rounded design skill set. You bring a team of smart collaborators and a mission worthy of everyone's time. Let's work together to build great things.

Experience and design methodology

Good design is responsible design. It focuses on the right questions to unlock long-term value, asking “whyˮ before “how.ˮ Itʼs efficient, but thoughtful… because speed only becomes value when informed by real understanding of the problem. Itʼs systems-oriented for scale, and it drives positive social impact.

Pair with critical thought

Be mindful of model biases and the pull toward averages. Teams that offload thought will magnify missteps, but mindful teams will win.

Use with intention

Our competition is fast, too. Speed that translates to real value is shaped by user-centered understanding.

Delegate tasks, not craft

Remove redundant steps, flatten process, and execute established patterns. But lead with "why?"

Strong product judgment wins

Knowing what to create is more important than ever. Recognizing the right and wrong problems remains central to effective design.

AI design methodology

AI is most powerful when executing against a vision, not creating one. As we get faster, understanding the problem is more important than ever.

Quality remains the great differentiator

Lasting gains require team expertise

Tooling doesn't replace culture

Causes with my support

I help the people doing society's most impactful work by supporting orgs that share my values. Design is rooted in empathy, and I'm a designer through and through. My values reflect my craft.
