What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead human‑AI product design, turning strategy into LLM-powered workflows and prototypes with cross‑functional teams—prioritizing user-centered storytelling, fast iteration, and measurable adoption.

I’m a Product Designer and AI implementation leader with 10+ years of UX experience, focused on pioneering AI-powered design workflows and process improvements that make teams faster and products clearer. I align corporate strategies with technology advancements to deliver LLM-powered user experiences grounded in user-centered design and collaborative storytelling.

In recent roles, I’ve led end-to-end UX and implementation—architecting and shipping full-featured apps, designing custom AI prompt systems and generation pipelines, and using AI to cut design-to-prototype time by 40%. I also scaled AI adoption from 0-80% of employees through systematic knowledge sharing and built enterprise-grade platforms (including a Nova Grant Management Platform) through discovery, compliance architecture, and executive collaboration.
