DESIGN
Professional Experience
Self-taught, I began my journey in the early days of the web as a hybrid designer and developer. This path led me to ad agencies, where I sharpened my skills and focused on perfecting my craft. My curiosity about how my designs influenced business outcomes pushed me toward the product industry, where I've spent the last decade leading design for some of the world's top tech companies.
