About
Designing the layers most users never see.
I design within complex, constraint-driven environments where identity, security, and ownership intersect. My work requires balancing platform limitations, policy requirements, and user trust—making high-stakes interactions feel clear and deliberate.
At General Motors, I’ve shaped authentication, account, and communication experiences across mobile—working closely with cross-functional partners to define patterns that support long-term product cohesion.

How I work
End-to-end ownership
From framing and IA through detailed interaction design and delivery
Narrative alignment
Use prototypes and storytelling to clarify trade-offs
System cohesion
Strengthen the product layer beneath features.
How I Think
I approach product design as layered system architecture.
Define the foundation
What are the core identity, permission, or communication layers?
Stress-test constraints
Where do platform, policy, or other dependencies create risk?
Design for scale
Which interaction patterns must extend across surfaces?
Clarify high-risk moments
Where does ambiguity erode user trust?
Background
I hold an M.S. in Human–Computer Interaction from the University of Michigan, with academic roots in psychology and anthropology. This background grounds my systems work in behavioral insight—understanding not just how products function, but how people interpret risk, trust, and control.
Across my career, I’ve worked on loyalty programs, mobile patterns, and early-stage software ventures—developing a strong foundation in end-to-end product design before focusing deeply on identity and communication systems.
Currently
I’m interested in senior product roles where I can shape cross-platform systems—particularly around identity, ownership, and communication across web and mobile.
Outside of work, I lead creative direction for Cafe March 21—illustrating, designing merch, and exploring how brand systems scale across products.
