Designing products for the AI Era.
I design products where AI, systems thinking, and user experience come together—making complex enterprise software feel surprisingly simple.
Designer by craft, Product Manager by mindset, and AI-native by execution.
With 10+ years of experience, I’ve worked on complex B2B and AI products across fintech, cloud security, and enterprise software.

I don't see myself as someone who designs screens—
I build products.
Over the past decade, I've worked across startups and high-growth teams, partnering closely with founders, product managers, engineers, and researchers to take ideas from rough concepts to products used by thousands of people.
Whether it's an AI security platform, a financial research tool, or a consumer experience, I'm most excited by solving difficult problems with thoughtful product thinking and design.
As a design leader, I enjoy creating environments where designers can do their best work.
I'm endlessly curious about AI and how it changes the way we build software. Today, I use AI not just as a feature to design, but as a collaborator in research, prototyping, and execution—helping ideas move from concept to reality faster than ever.
