As a product designer I distill complex data and tasks down to simple user interfaces that save companies millions of dollars and make lives better. But, my job is also to help teams successfully understand and solve problems together. Whether I'm presenting insights from my user interviews to stakeholders, diagramming security roles with engineers, developing a creative brief with my product manager, or adding design notes to user stories for QA, I love unifying intelligent people with visual artifacts and clear communication. I play a crucial role in delivering not just the end-user experience but that of my product and UX teams as well.Since 2007 I've successfully designed and helped ship software for forest planning, intellectual property management, CRM, finance, customer service, account management, healthcare, external integrations, billing/auditing, expense management, benefits administration, cybersecurity, and other complex B2B, internal, and enterprise SaaS applications. I've supported both large and small UX teams in establishing best practices, operating models, and company culture. In times of high attrition, turnover, and ambiguity I've stepped up to keep momentum with both UX and product teams. It has also been my privilege to work with talent around the world as a 100% remote employee since 2018. I enjoy the diversity, flexibility, and discipline it has brought to my career.Last, but certainly not least, I am a husband and father of 4 great kids. I'm also a maker and DIYer with endless home improvement projects, hobbies, and aspirations which have no trouble occupying all my free time.
