UX that ships and scales
Senior Product Designer and Interaction Designer based in NYC, turning complex workflows into clear, usable product experiences.
I help teams make important product moments easier to use
As products grow, the experience often gets harder to understand before it gets better.
Features pile up. Key flows become harder to complete. Teams feel the friction, but they don't always know what to fix first.
I help simplify those moments through stronger product structure, clearer UX thinking, and focused design work that helps teams move forward with confidence.
