(About)

I started in software engineering, which is why I design the way I do. I've spent the last six years leading design at product teams across fintech, HR tech, and SaaS, most recently as Lead UX Designer, managing a small team and owning products from discovery through handoff.

My deepest work is in design systems and brand identity: the connective tissue that lets a product stay coherent while a team moves fast. I've built component libraries that cut design time for new features nearly in half, and rebranded platforms end to end, from logo to UI standards.

(How I work)

The same four moves behind every case study here, in the order they happen.
  1. Step 1 of 4

    Map the real workflow

    Sit with the people doing the work and diagram it end to end: who touches what, in what order, and what "done" actually means.

  2. Step 2 of 4

    Lock the object model

    Name the nouns before drawing screens. Levvy's Client → Workflow → Task → Subtask absorbed 3.5 years of requests without a redesign.

  3. Step 3 of 4

    Build the system

    Components, tokens and patterns that make module fifteen as easy to design accurately as module two.

  4. Step 4 of 4

    Ship and measure

    Prototype, test, hand off with engineers in the room, then watch the numbers after launch and iterate.
