What I'm looking for

I seek senior product design roles where I can build scalable design systems, lead cross-functional teams, apply AI to practical product problems, and deliver compliant, measurable outcomes in regulated industries.

I am a product designer with 15+ years delivering enterprise digital products across healthcare, education, and regulated environments, focused on building scalable design systems and leading cross-functional teams through ambiguity.

I architect Figma operations at scale, create token-based design systems that reduced component recreation by 40%, and apply AI to solve real business problems — including building custom GPTs that replaced a $7,000 annual license and training 180+ professionals.

My work has influenced $10M–$50M in business outcomes, retained a $5M contract through research-driven redesign, and consistently balances usability, accessibility, compliance, and measurable product impact.
