How I show up at work
I’m a Staff Product Designer with over 13 years of experience designing digital products across Enterprise SaaS, banking, and biotech.
My work spans research, complex user flows, interaction design, and prototyping. I work closely with product managers and engineers to turn user needs and technical constraints into solutions teams can deliver.
Alongside product design, I run selected training and speaking engagements grounded in hands-on experience.
Most recent employed role
From July 2024 to April 2026, I worked as Staff UX at N-able on cloud data protection products for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, combining hands-on product design, research, and cross-team alignment.
My default mode
At work, I help teams navigate complex systems by making them easier to understand and reason about. I’m comfortable operating in ambiguity, unpacking layered problems, and making assumptions, constraints, and long-term implications explicit. My background in business analysis influences how I approach UX today — helping teams clarify what decisions they are really making and move forward with confidence, without unnecessary rework.
I’m currently exploring the same questions through VECTOR OPS, an independent operational systems project in which I’m designing and implementing the domain model, consequence logic, runtime, and operator experience around complex cross-domain decisions.
When things get hard
When a product becomes difficult to navigate, I help untangle requirements, dependencies, and constraints. I make trade-offs explicit and use prototypes and shared reviews to help the team agree on a clear, workable direction.
How I collaborate
In day-to-day collaboration, I value clarity, respect, and honesty — especially when we disagree. I’m direct, but I try to stay kind. I believe good work happens in environments where people feel safe to say “I don’t know yet” and where difficult topics are addressed openly, not avoided.
What I’m looking for
I’m interested in Senior and Staff Product Designer roles, particularly on complex B2B and enterprise products. I’m looking for hands-on design work, close collaboration with product management and engineering, and the opportunity to shape product direction. I value teams that combine responsibility, constructive feedback, and long-term thinking.
