I design complex high-stakes products where clarity, speed, and accuracy matter.

 

ABOUT ME

I am a Product Designer focused on complex products where usability directly impacts outcomes. Throughout my career, I have partnered closely with product and engineering to bring clarity to dense workflows, balance user needs with technical constraints, and move ideas from concept to implementation.

With a background in both design and software development, I am comfortable operating at the intersection of strategy and execution. I have designed across enterprise defense and healthcare environments where accuracy, speed, and thoughtful decision making matters.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and a Bachelors in Computer Science (CS) from the Georgia Institute of Technology.

My heart belongs to the details. I actually always found them to be more important than the big picture. Nothing works without details. They are everything, the baseline of quality.

CAPABILITIES

My skill set spans the product design lifecycle, allowing me to step in where clarity and momentum are needed most. I work comfortably across product requirements, interaction design, prototyping, and developer collaboration, adjusting my depth based on the problem space rather than a fixed process.

This range enables me to support teams in navigating complex constraints, aligning stakeholders, and delivering solutions that perform in real world condition.


Product Design

  • Translate requirements into clear interaction models and thoughtful prototypes

  • Explore solutions through low and high fidelity design based on problem complexity

  • Contribute to and evolve design systems

  • Communicate design intent across teams

  • Ensure design quality through iterative review and refinement

Primary Tools: Figma, Axure, Adobe XD

Supporting Tools: Adobe CC, Excalidraw


Research & Human Factors

  • Drive research and analysis to inform product strategy and design decisions

  • Evaluate systems for accessibility, usability, and operational effectiveness

  • Observe and engage with users in real world contexts to uncover pain points

  • Map workflows, journeys, and interactions to clarity complex processes

  • Develop user models and personas

  • Conduct structured and exploratory testing

  • Visualize data and insights to guide decision making

Methods: Accessibility assessments, contextual inquiry, heuristic evaluations, interviews, journey mapping, task analysis, usability testing


TECHNICAL FLUENCY

  • Collaborate effectively with engineering teams using knowledge of front end technologies and design implementation practices

  • Ensure designs are feasible, scalable, and consistent across products

FUN

If you read this far, you may be interested in the other things I do for fun. I do a LOT of puzzles, have an extensive LEGO collection, read dystopian and psychological thrillers, sew stuffed animals, crochet, and play video games. I’m usually covered in dog hair or glitter glue and will never say no to french fries. Lastly, I’m currently in the middle of marathon training so don’t be surprised if I’m walking during our meetings to keep my legs active.
