About

Product designer with 7+ years of experience across 40+ projects in multiple industries. I focus on building cohesive, usable products grounded in real-world constraints. Currently, I’m the Lead Product Designer at Tru Identity, helping shape the future of supply chain compliance. Previously, I’ve led and mentored design teams, partnered closely with engineering and stakeholders, and worked end-to-end on complex product challenges. Originally from 🇺🇸 Indiana, now based in 🇭🇷 Croatia. I’ve spent my career working with distributed teams across the US and Europe. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and son, playing and writing music, and learning.
