About me

INTJ

Leo

Enneagram 5

I’m a product designer, mentor, and growth strategist who is Denver-based 🏔️, LA-raised ☀️, with Philly roots 🦅. I help mission-driven teams design digital experiences that drive growth and keep users coming back. When I’m not in Figma, I’m pretty much hanging with my dog, Luna.

My approach

I combine UX thinking with product strategy to design scalable solutions that solve real user needs, align with business goals, and are built to last (not just sit in Figma). No fluff. No over-design. Just thoughtful, tested solutions that work.

Good design builds trust.
Strategic design beats over-design.
Done > perfect
Don't design in a vacuum

My design process

My design process

My design process

Understand and align

I don’t just ask questions, I ask the right questions. I dig into user psychology, business constraints, team dynamics, and market signals to uncover what’s really going on. I turn scattered insights, fuzzy ideas, and half-baked goals into clear, focused direction. If a brief doesn’t exist, I’ll help build it. If the strategy is murky, I’ll clarify it. That’s where the work really starts.

Design and collaborate

I move from strategy to systems with speed and intention. Every screen I design is grounded in business goals, user insights, and practical constraints. I annotate clearly and structure files so cross-functional teams can easily follow along. I believe in collaboration that’s honest and proactive, not just checking a box. You’ll always know why I made a design decision, not just what I did.

Test and adapt

My work doesn’t have to stop at the handoff. I validate designs through experimentation, testing, and ongoing iteration. Whether it’s an A/B test, a usability study, or post-launch analysis, I believe in learning fast and improving faster. I’m not afraid to change direction when the data demands it. I make sure insights feed directly into the next round of work.
