How I work

What I do

I lead product design and UX for products used by millions, and I stay close to the work, from research and concept to prototypes in code.

Where I'm strongest

  • Loyalty and commerce at scale
  • Registration, onboarding, trust & safety
  • 0→1 products, from MVP to exit
  • Design systems and accessibility (WCAG AA)

How I lead

Through influence and clear decisions, with designers, agencies, Scrum teams, product managers, researchers and executives. The best work happens as a team.

I believe in

  • Decisions grounded in research and testing
  • True MVPs and fast iteration
  • Better lean than sorry
