Design leadership meets hands-on craft. I set the vision, build the team, and still do the work myself, across product and brand, powered by an AI-native workflow made for speed.

About
Driven and detail-oriented Head of Design building clean, considered digital products that serve both users and the business. With 12+ years of experience across product design, design systems, and team leadership, I've been a founding design hire before, building product and brand from the ground up, along with the teams that scale them.
I've been a trusted design partner to founders and executive leadership, not just a service function brought in after the decisions are made. I build the systems, standards, and AI-native workflows that let a whole team move faster without losing craft, and I stay close enough to the work to keep that bar high myself. My focus is thoughtful, user-centered design that communicates clearly, builds trust, and holds up as products scale.


Capabilities
Design expertise spanning brand, product, and team leadership, with an AI-native workflow woven through all three.
