What I'm looking for

I seek senior product/UX roles where I can lead AI-first design, scale design systems, improve accessibility, and deliver measurable user and business impact.

I am a senior product and UX design leader with 15+ years building cloud-based, mission-critical B2B SaaS products, specializing in data-dense dashboards and complex automation workflows for power users. I work hands-on across research, interaction and visual design, prototyping, usability, and accessibility for web and mobile.

I've led design strategy and teams at scale, from founding-agency work to enterprise roles, including establishing UX programs, design systems, and accessibility initiatives that served over one million users and saved hundreds of hours per month through automation. I drove measurable improvements such as a 25% increase in learner satisfaction for trainingGrid™ and significant workflow automation gains for Iron Mountain's InSight platform.

I leverage AI-first workflows and modern tooling to accelerate research, prototyping, and delivery while partnering closely with product, engineering, and QA in agile SDLCs. I focus on building collaborative, testable, and accessible experiences that reduce risk and unlock new revenue and operational efficiencies.
