About

I’ve spent over 15 years designing and shaping product experiences across startups and large enterprise environments. Today, I lead a UX team and work closely with product and engineering partners on firmwide platforms and internal products, helping teams navigate complexity and make thoughtful design decisions at scale. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how UX needs to evolve as AI becomes part of everyday workflows and how, even with powerful tools at our disposal, clarity, empathy, and human judgment remain essential to building useful and delightful products.
