About
Design lead with 10+ years at startups, from user research through design systems to coded prototypes. I pull everyone's work closer together across design, engineering, and product.
I ship outcomes, not mockups. Helped grow Roadtrippers from 600K to 2M+ MAU. Sole designer at BreakLine partnering across the entire org. Stepped into an acting PM role at PokerAtlas when the product needed it.
I build systems that scale teams. Bonfire design system across 5 platforms, $143K/yr in savings. Led accessibility from 500K+ issues to under 100. I design for composability and build with engineers, not over the wall.
I'm a force multiplier. Figma plugins with thousands of downloads. Coded design tokens and React prototypes. AI-powered design workflows that collapse the timeline from concept to reality. One designer who operates like a small team.
I obsess over the details that fall between the cracks of traditional roles. Micro-interactions that make interfaces sing. Design systems that actually scale. Documentation that engineers don't hate reading. I've evolved across every major tool shift from Illustrator CS2 through Sketch to Figma, and I know them all inside out.
When I'm not designing products, I'm building them. Side projects, open-source tools, and experiments live in the lab.
This portfolio lives in my Obsidian vault — I write in my favorite editor with powerful linking and organization. It's a nerdy setup that lets me focus on content instead of fighting with CMSs.
I'm always up for conversations about design systems, product challenges, or building better developer tools.
