What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead industrial design for consumer and retail-ready products—owning concept through prototyping, CMF, and launch—working closely with engineering and marketing to deliver cohesive, user-focused hardware.

I’m a Senior Industrial Designer who leads end-to-end hardware design—owning design strategy, execution, and cross-functional alignment to bring products from concept to market. Right now, I’m focused on Hyper branded products, ensuring every decision supports a cohesive product experience.

Since taking the lead, I developed and implemented a unified design language and updated CMF strategy for the Hyper brand. I also served as Lead Designer on a strategic B2B project with Medtronic, managing the full design process for a projected 50k unit forecast.

In my work, clarity and speed matter: I designed an iPad folio case that helped secure product placement across all Best Buy retail locations. I use rapid prototyping to validate ergonomics, form, and function—reducing development cycles and enabling faster design lock—while keeping design intent intact across design, engineering, and marketing teams.

Earlier, as a Senior Industrial Designer at mophie, I led design and development of mobile pay (mPOS) products, securing global placement in Apple, Nike, T-Mobile, and Levi’s retail stores. I designed and launched 50+ products into mass production, coordinated daily with overseas engineering teams, and contributed to IP by helping lead the industrial design for the Charge Force Case (U.S. Patent No. US10516431B2), while also pitching the PowerStation Plus battery pack for the 2019 roadmap.
