What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead enterprise-grade experience systems—workflow-driven authoring, governance, and localization—where I can partner with Product and Engineering, bring systems thinking, and apply an AI-enabled design approach to ship durable platform foundations.

I’m a Senior Experience Designer with 15+ years designing complex digital products across enterprise and consumer platforms. I specialize in turning ambiguity into clear interaction models—building scalable workflows, durable product foundations, and systems that behave well under real-world constraints.

In my current role as a Senior Experience Designer for AppleCare Digital at HUGE Inc., I’ve led enterprise-scale CMS and authoring platform initiatives for a Fortune 10 technology client. I focus on how content is authored, secured, localized, reviewed, and published across global teams, partnering closely with Product and Engineering to balance usability, operational clarity, and long-term scalability.

I’ve shipped major system capabilities, including workflow-driven localization and translation experiences, Editor components (like Tables, Lists, Inline Media, and Word/Character Count), and a Change Tracking/Diff Comparison experience designed for review-friendly clarity. I also designed governance features like Secure Topics and the Variables (CodeNames) “single source of truth,” plus a Conditions/Taxonomy platform that improves targeting accuracy while reducing redundant tagging and authoring friction.

I bring an AI-enabled design practice to accelerate discovery and validate edge cases early—using GPT/Claude as a thinking partner and agentic prototyping tools (Cursor/Codex/Computer) to pressure-test models before engineering investment. Across roles from Product Designer to Design Director, I’ve built and led teams and design systems that help organizations deliver complex workflows with confidence.
