Info
I’m a design leader shaped by experience, driven by curiosity, and still finding new ways to see and create.
Bio
For over a decade, I’ve brought together product thinking, brand design, and craft to turn complex ideas into considered digital experiences.
I like being close to the making. Working through an idea, noticing what feels off, and refining it until the details come together. That’s where I feel most connected to design—and it shapes how I lead, too.
As a player-coach, I help teams find direction while staying involved in the work. I care about giving people room to explore, knowing when to challenge an idea, and helping good thinking become something we can put into the world.
Working with brands like AT&T, eBay, and Expedia Group has taught me how much happens between a promising concept and a shipped experience. I’ve helped shape future product directions and delivered hundreds of features, learning from the decisions, constraints, and people along the way.
Lately, I’ve been exploring how AI can make more room for creative work: shortening repetitive tasks, making ideas easier to test, and opening up new ways to build. I’m interested in what these tools make possible, and how to use them with intention.
Outside of design, I’m a husband and dad to a young son, sharing life on the East Coast with my wife and our miniature goldendoodle. We love movies, going out to eat, and simply spending time together. Being a parent makes the future feel more personal—the world my son will grow up in is one I’m helping shape. It also makes my relationship with technology more complicated. I’m excited by what new tools make possible, but I’m constantly figuring out when to embrace them and when to step away and be present. That balance is something I’m still learning.
