What I'm looking for
I am a visionary Lead Product Designer with over a decade of experience in crafting intuitive, user-centered designs that have driven measurable impact exceeding $4 billion in the healthcare, pharmaceutical, and B2B sectors. My expertise lies in transforming complex workflows into simplified customer experiences, ensuring that user satisfaction is at the forefront of my design philosophy.
Throughout my career, I have led significant projects that have resulted in substantial revenue growth and improved user engagement. For instance, at Instinct Science, I enhanced user satisfaction by 70% through ethnographic research and design, while at MMIT, I co-led the redesign of a market access application that generated a $4 billion new business pipeline. My ability to manage teams and implement effective design processes has consistently improved design velocity and user advocacy across organizations.
As I continue to evolve in my career, I am passionate about leveraging my skills in design and research to create impactful user experiences. I thrive in collaborative environments where I can mentor junior designers and drive innovation through user-centered design practices.
