About me
I am a Senior Product Designer who specializes in creating systems, tools, and workflows that make complex problems clear and manageable. My work has spanned large organizations including Walmart and Uber, where I've delivered enterprise platforms, design systems, B2C & B2B experiences that improved workflows and drove measurable outcomes.
Bridging Design and Engineering
My background in Visual Design and Front-End Development shapes how I design. I understand how decisions translate into code, which allows me to collaborate effectively with engineering teams, anticipate constraints, consider accessibility, and design solutions that are both elegant and practical. This hybrid perspective helps me move ideas from concept to implementation with clarity.
How I Work
According to my Business Chemistry profile, I am primarily an Integrator with a strong Guardian influence. This means I value collaboration, consensus, and empathy, while also appreciating structure, clarity, and attention to detail. In practice, I connect people around shared goals, translate ambiguity into actionable solutions, and balance imagination with stability.
Outside of Work
I am a lifelong learner, artist, musician, and father of three residing in the Pacific Northwest. I bring curiosity, creativity, and discipline into all parts of my life, always looking for ways to make experiences more meaningful and connected.
