Just a product guy with over a decade of experience crafting thoughtful, user-centered digital experiences. I specialize in designing complex systems, scaling product design for growth, and applying the right level of polish to make products not only functional, but memorable.
I've been blessed to have worked across a wide range of industries and teams, from early-stage startups to growth-focused SaaS platforms and most recently leading product design at Mixmax. While I often find myself in strategic conversations about roadmap, user friction, or vision alignment, I'm never far from the Figma file. I still love getting into the weeds and sweating the details, because that's where the magic (and the mess) happens.
Growth! I'll forever be a student of design because it sits at the intersection of problem-solving, empathy, and craft. Good design should be invisible and make people's lives easier, clearer, more efficient, and ideally, a bit more delightful.
Leading by example, not title
Designing with curiosity and purpose
Being generous with feedback and open with ideas
Advocating for users, even when it's inconvenient
Balancing vision with pragmatism
I may be open to new opportunities.
