How I Help
AI-forward. Experience-grounded.
AI multiplies the option space in hours instead of weeks. Decades of practice determine whether what ships is right. I bring both, diverging faster with generative tools and converging smarter through research, taste, and judgment about what should ship, not just what can be built.
AI & Emerging Tech
I design AI and LLM features that earn adoption: conversational query layers, natural-language interfaces for non-technical users, and AI-native workflows that replace legacy tooling. Hands-on since before the hype cycle, I evaluate each generation of tools quickly and separate real capability from marketing.
Design Leadership & Strategy
End-to-end design for complex, regulated products as a hands-on Staff/Principal IC or a design leader, as needed, plus the design diplomacy to align stakeholders on a path to shipping.
Systems & Scale
Code-centric, themeable, accessible design systems: coded “source of truth” libraries deployed across globally distributed teams, built for an AI-centric future.
Dev-Fluent Collaboration
I speak front-end, from HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to React, Angular, Storybook, partnering with full-stack engineers, sequencing design delivery around implementation complexity, keeping teams unblocked.
Research That Drives Action
Stakeholder workshops, live wireframing, and cross-product audits. Market and customer research synthesized into action, compressing decisions and shaping multi-year roadmaps.
From idea to pull request
I work at whatever fidelity the decision needs, and I can carry design intent all the way into production code.
01
Wireframes & concepts
Fast, low-cost alignment: sketches, wireframes, and flows that frame the problem and get everyone debating the right things.
02
Interactive prototypes
High-realism, AI-built working prototypes that validate real interactions, roles, and permissions across personas in days, not weeks.
03
Coded UI, in a pull request
When it’s fastest, I go straight from idea to production-framework code your engineers can review and merge. Decisions survive the handoff.
Proof, Not Promises
Work that shipped and stuck.
