I design top-tier products, and fix the ones AI built. 10 years in UX architecture, design systems, and UI design across various products and industries.
Teams can ship a working prototype in a weekend now. What they can't ship in a weekend is a product people trust — consistent, navigable, scalable, coherent under real use. That gap is where I work.
I've supported product teams behind IHG, Georgia-Pacific, AES, Krispy Kreme, and NAPA. I also build AI-powered platforms myself — including Blackline, an AI agency operating system I designed and shipped end to end: strategy, information architecture, design system, build, and client delivery.

WHAT I DO BEST
AI-Native Product Design
▪ Turning AI-generated MVPs (Lovable, Bolt, v0, Replit, Base44) into production-grade products
▪ Designing AI features people actually trust — generation states, confidence signals, review and approval flows
▪ AI-assisted prototyping and design-to-code workflows (Cursor, Claude Code, Figma AI)
▪ Structuring products so AI-accelerated teams don't outrun their own architecture
Product & SaaS UX
▪ Admin dashboards and data-heavy interfaces
▪ Multi-role platforms (Admin / User / Partner / Client experiences)
▪ Product onboarding and activation
▪ Simplifying complex workflows and internal tools
Design Systems
▪ Figma variables and token architecture
▪ Tokens that sync to code (Tailwind, CSS variables, Next.js)
▪ Scalable component libraries
▪ Documentation engineers actually use
▪ System audits and modernization
Web & Platform Design
▪ Marketing websites and product sites
▪ Conversion-focused landing pages
▪ Information architecture and navigation design
▪ Aligning product UX with marketing experience

COMMON SITUATIONS I HELP WITH
▪ "We vibe-coded an MVP. It works, but it doesn't feel like a real product."
▪ "We're adding AI features and don't know how they should behave."
▪ "The UX drifted as we shipped fast."
▪ "There's no design system — or the one we have stopped holding up."
▪ "Engineering is moving faster than our product structure."
▪ "The platform needs a thoughtful redesign, not a reskin."

HOW I WORK
I approach design structurally, not just visually. I spend time understanding how a product works before redesigning how it looks, because the goal is always clarity — interfaces that make sense to users and systems that make sense to the team building them.
I use AI the way a senior designer should: as leverage on execution, never as a substitute for judgment. Speed is easy now. Judgment is the scarce part.
I collaborate closely with founders, PMs, and engineers, and I'm comfortable inside fast-moving startups and larger enterprise environments alike. Clients describe my work as thoughtful, fast, reliable, and detail-oriented.

If you're building a complex product — or you've got an AI-built one that needs to grow up — send me a note describing what you're working on. I'll tell you straight whether I'm the right fit, and if I'm not, I'll usually tell you who is.
