What I'm looking for

Senior product designer with 7+ years in healthtech, blending behavioral psychology and clinical informatics to make complex workflows usable for clinicians and patients. Looking for a mission-driven, remote team where I can lead end-to-end UX on B2B/B2B2C products that actually move outcomes.

I'm a Senior Product Designer focused on healthcare UX, turning complex clinical workflows into scalable B2B and B2B2C digital health products. With a background in behavioral psychology, I design digital environments that enable, teach, and support continuous care.

In recent roles, I've led research practices and then shifted into end-to-end product design—most notably for chronic care management and secure provider-patient messaging. I apply behavioral design principles to reduce friction for patients (for example, medication requests) while helping clinicians save time.

I also care deeply about system consistency and accessibility: I audited interaction patterns across public health systems serving national-scale populations, introduced Object-Oriented UX (OOUX) to structure complex healthcare data, and mentored junior designers on whole systems and flows. From supporting an EHR rollout to UX audits and inpatient workflow redesigns, my goal is always the same—build systems that clinicians and patients can actually use.
