Senior Visual Designer and former UX Lead crafting clear, high-impact visual stories for product and enterprise strategy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Visual Designer and former UX Lead with over a decade of experience translating complex ideas into clear, compelling visual stories. I specialize in high-impact presentations, brand systems, and digital design that help teams communicate strategy, product vision, and data with confidence.
My background in UX and product design strengthens my ability to structure information, simplify complexity, and design visuals that resonate with both executive and customer audiences. I’ve worked across enterprise organizations, startups, and independent ventures—aligning storytelling, brand, and business goals.
At Fidelity Investments, I led design initiatives for enterprise HR platforms and emerging AI tools, creating visual presentations, product narratives, and design artifacts for stakeholders and leadership. I also built interactive prototypes and visual workflows, supported usability testing and behavioral analysis, and contributed to design-system consistency across enterprise platforms.
More recently, I’ve supported independent projects through visual design, branding, and presentation work—building brand identity and marketing visuals, launching and maintaining an Etsy storefront, and publishing essays on Substack and Medium to sharpen narrative and communication.
