I’m a product designer who tends to live in two different worlds.In enterprise environments, I work at a Staff Product Designer level—diving into the messy, complex systems behind internal tools, finance platforms, approvals, workflows, and governance models. I like bringing structure to large-scale, multi-team environments and using systems thinking, information architecture, and clear design patterns to make complicated products feel simple.On the startup side, I shift into full 0→1 mode. I’ve operated as a founding designer, building everything from scratch—UX, UI, brand, product strategy, rapid prototypes, and the design system that holds it all together. At Salt, that meant establishing the early product direction, defining flows, and partnering closely with engineering and founders to move fast.I’m at my best in ambiguous spaces with lots of moving parts—whether it’s rethinking enterprise workflows, designing internal tools, or helping an early-stage team shape their first real product. My work sits somewhere between product design, systems architecture, and product strategy, with a focus on clarity, consistency, and execution.
