My experience spans:
I started in front-end development before moving into interaction design, research, and UX leadership. I’ve since led and mentored designers while partnering with product, engineering, marketing, and executives. That mix helps when a product challenge crosses team or system boundaries.
I am most effective when I can help teams:
I care less about making the process look polished than whether the decision is sound, the reasoning is clear, and the team can keep building on it.
Outside of professional work, I spend most of my time with my family and on small, hands-on projects that mix curiosity, learning, and practicality.
I enjoy building simple systems at home, like a family Minecraft server for my kids, helping them create and print 3D models, and maintaining a home media setup that supports how we watch and share content together. I’m drawn to projects that are useful, understandable, and create shared experiences.
When the weather allows, we spend time outdoors playing in the yard, going for walks, or hiking nearby trails. At home, that often turns into movie nights, games, or puzzles.
