Product design leader with 15+ years of experience shaping complex digital products across consumer and enterprise contexts. I focus on design systems, personalization, and turning complex data into intuitive, high-quality experiences. I've led design across multi-brand ecosystems and influence product strategy at scale. I've launched new products from the ground up and helped mature platforms reach higher standards in design and customer experience, driving meaningful growth. I use AI throughout my workflow, including implementing UI directly in code, to work at higher velocity and reduce friction between design and engineering.
