• Drove post-MVP iteration by incorporating user feedback into flow improvements, error handling, and interaction clarity, strengthening usability for healthcare tasks in high-urgency settings.

• Worked alongside FDA consultants to create structured documentation for design rationale, changes, and traceable decision-making aligned with FDA pre-market submission needs. Partnered with embedded engineering to create UI on a physical device.

• Built vibe-coded interactive prototypes to run rapid, task-based usability evaluations with clinicians—de-risking high-stakes workflows.

• Spearheaded design for an early-stage B2B SaaS healthcare recruitment platform as first design hire, conducting heuristic evaluations, redesign of legacy platform and new features to support clinician hiring pipelines.

• Defined the UX strategy, design language, growth opportunities and user feedback loops, turning product concepts to validated prototypes that supported $3M seed funding & a merger with Goodwork.world.

• Led end-to-end feature development + launched core recruiter tools like candidate search, messaging, pipelines, dashboards, driving a 5× increase in placements, and a 60% increase in candidate engagement.

• Built and launched a responsive design system, style guide, and documentation that cut development handoff time by 40%.

• Evangelized user-centered practices and guided cross-functional collaboration with product managers, engineering and stakeholders.

• Led early discovery for an infusion pump MVP through competitive analysis and FDA-guided secondary research, building a clear

understanding of user workflows, constraints, and safety-critical interactions.

• Built a risk-aware UX foundation by identifying failure modes, mapping error states, and defining edge cases—then converting insights into

core task flows and a cohesive MVP workflow. Designed for accessibility, aligning UI with WCAG 2.1 guidelines.

• Produced high-fidelity prototypes and demos that made the concept tangible for stakeholders and investors, supporting a $200K angel raise.

• Designed and shipped a musician mentorship + gig-finding platform used by 3,000+ early-career musicians, iterating from wireframes to hi-fi prototypes in an agile workflow.

• Led mixed-methods discovery (20+ stakeholder interviews + card sorting) to identify opportunities, assess product-market fit, and define the platform’s IA, journeys, and core flows.

• Conducted a 15+ competitor analysis to shape product strategy and the revenue model, translating insights into key flows and UX direction.

• Built a token-based design system (~500 components/variables) to streamline dev handoff and ensure UI consistency.

• Led end-to-end redesign of employee onboarding experiences, leveraging qualitative user interviews and card-sorting methodologies to restructure information architecture, resulting in a 60% reduction in HR-related inquiries and improved operational efficiency.

• Conducted in-depth analysis of enrollment and demographic datasets to develop executive-ready data visualizations and narrative storytelling assets, directly supporting a successful $8M state funding proposal.

• Designed and delivered feasibility studies, analytical dashboards, and decision-support tools, enabling leadership to make data-driven strategic and operational decisions.
