Hello and welcome
I'm a senior product design generalist with experience building for millions of users, in collaboration with amazing cross-functional partners. I create scalable solutions that unlock business value without compromising product quality and organizational integrity. Most recently I led design for Ediscovery search facilities at CS Disco, where my work helped drive tens of millions in revenue.

Collaborative partnership
Not a prompt and pixel pusher—a committed, strategic partner
Driving cross-functional collaboration
I love the collaborative nature of product development, working with people who think differently than me, toward a common goal. My success is my team's success, and vice-versa.
Solving large-scale problems
Driving research, weighing tradeoffs, shaping org knowledge, and feeding shared systems. That's where we'll find sustainable revenue.
Communciating complex design decisions
Some designers keep silent… that's not me. Relationship building with stakeholders and partners is central to my design process. I love sharing, setting context, shaping narrative, and generating consensus. Good design is well communicated design.
Tens of millions
of dollars in directly attributable revenue from products I've designed
Scalable solutions that unlock long-term business value
Spreading knowledge
I often think through writing, using documentation to generate consensus, build momentum, and invest in my org's base of knowledge.
Strengths in design
I bring a diverse design skill set to the product development table. 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 methodology
Good design craft is meticulous in its pursuit of responsible solutions, so I focus on scalability and accessibility for long-term business growth and positive social impact. I foster relationships with users, leverage data to drive decisions, prioritize well-written documentation and strong team comms… and drive deep cross-functional collaboration that helps everybody win. Iʼm research-oriented and an advocate for design operations. I embrace process and help drive it forward. I think in terms of systems. And I shape strategy through rich working relationships with product partners.
Select case studies
I bring diverse domain exposure and insights, having helped shape progress in education, technology, entertainment, and law. I've worked on teams ranging from lean startups to large global enterprises. Shifting between industries has helped me develop a balanced, holistic sensitivity toward design.
Quality in, quality out
Output is constrained by input. Use AI for complex problems, but avoid the quality degradation spiral that comes with thought dependency.
Use with intention
When our competition is also fast, the speed that translates to value is shaped by a user-centered understanding of the problem.
Delegate tasks, not craft
Remove redundant steps, flatten process, and rapidly execute established patterns. But lead with "why?"
Take the wheel
For the best results, drive AI with human conviction, around observable human behavior.
AI design methodology
Speed translates to value when shaped by strategic thought and user advocacy—so I ask "why" before asking "how." AI is most powerful when executing against a vision, not creating one. To build products that drive long-term revenue, user-centered understanding of the problem is more critical than ever.
Quality is (once again) the great differentiator
Used poorly, AI can produce quality drift faster than teams can recognize it
Teams that lack taste and user understanding… will produce garbage at scale
But user-centered teams that use AI effectively… will win with quality at scale
Lasting gains require team expertise
Tooling doesn't replace product culture
Causes with my support
I help empower the people doing society's most impactful work. I'm privileged to redirect a slice of my income to these orgs whose work reflect my values. I share this because understanding my values will help you understand who I am as a person and colleague.
