I started my career managing stores for Publix. Then I designed theme park environments for Universal and SeaWorld. Then I spent a decade leading product design across enterprise SaaS platforms.
Every chapter taught me the same thing: complexity is the enemy of action. Whether it's operations, immersive environments, or AI-driven products, the job is always the same: cut through the noise and make the next step obvious.
That thinking is the foundation of my new portfolio, now live.
Inside you’ll find:
• The Clarity Engine, an AI copilot for enterprise decision-making
• Case studies with measurable impact: +22% adoption, +18% retention, 3× growth
• My approach to leading and scaling design at the VP level
If you're hiring, exploring, or curious, take a look.

Still one of my favorite projects I’ve worked on 🔥
Did we over-deliver? We were approached for a product design for a multi-chain launchpad that didn't look like "all the others". What we delivered was a creative concept for an IP that completely immerses the user, a full brand, a fully functional frontend complete with a styleguide including all design tokens and components. What do you think?
this is fire!
The best outcome for me is when a project grows into a long-term product partnership.
We’ve been working with CleverShares for around six months now. The product keeps evolving, attracting investment, and opening up new opportunities and growth challenges for us to solve together.
For me, that’s one of the strongest signs of good work: not simply completing a design phase, but creating enough value that the client wants to keep building the product with you.
And we’re continuing 🚀
