About Me
I'm a Product Designer who ships code—and understands the business side.
With over 15 years designing enterprise applications at AWS, Red Hat, and high-growth B2B companies, I specialize in design systems and complex, data-intensive interfaces. I've shaped products used by millions of developers and contributed to some of the industry's most respected open-source design systems.
What makes me different:
- I code production-quality prototypes — I build functional prototypes in HTML/CSS/React, which means my designs are validated with real data and ready for engineering handoff. This bridges the gap between design and development, accelerating shipping and reducing costly miscommunication.
- I think like a PM — I've managed product roadmaps, prioritized features, and led cross-functional teams. This dual perspective helps me balance user needs with business objectives and collaborate effectively with product managers and stakeholders.
- Former PatternFly core contributor — I was a core contributor to PatternFly (2016-2021), Red Hat's open-source design system with 20,000+ GitHub stars, used across OpenShift, Ansible, and 50+ products serving millions of developers worldwide.
Currently: Lead Product Designer at Component Assembly Systems
