Profile

Senior product designer with nine years of experience shaping B2B SaaS products used by more than two million people. I pair rigorous discovery with fast, high-fidelity prototyping, and I am happiest when a design decision can be traced back to a measured user outcome. Previously led the design system that unified four product surfaces at Atlas Cloud, cutting new-feature design time by 40%.
