Background

I've spent 15 years designing products that small businesses and consumers depend on at PayPal, LinkedIn and Gusto.

My work sits between complexity and clarity: I take problems with many layers and build something that feels obvious on the other side. I've shipped 0-1 products, redesigned platform-scale experiences, and I'm now building AI-powered tools that are changing how designers work at Meta.

Principles

Strategy and craft aren't separate stages to me. They're the same conviction, expressed differently. You can't arrive at something truly simple without first understanding the complexity beneath it. So I try to understand what's actually true before I ever design anything, then I carefully craft it.

At the core of my work is empathy: I care about how a thing holds up once it's built — months or years after, when it either still works seamlessly in someone's life, or it doesn't. To me, that's what tests whether a product earned its place in the world.

So I choose the considered path over the flashy one, even when it's quieter. Something useful, made with enough care that it simply weaves into someone's life.
