About

I design digital products and scalable interaction systems at scale; tools that help people do their best work in complex environments. Over the past 8 years, I’ve worked on platform-level problems across Rippling, Microsoft, and IBM, designing core product foundations such as editors, navigation systems, workflows, and design systems. My work typically sits at the intersection of user needs, technical constraints, and long-term product evolution. I’m particularly interested in systems thinking, clarity at scale, and designing products that grow over time where consistency, trust, and thoughtful trade-offs matter as much as speed.
