About

I bring over 15 years of experience in human centered product design, combining deep UX expertise, strategic thinking, and award-winning design leadership. Through a number of years specializing in safety critical design for heavy industry, I have built a skillset around simplifying complex systems. I feel most at home in autonomous product teams – having a 0-1 focus – from early idea to launch and iterative improvements. I guide product teams using design methods. I strive to create solutions that improve quality of life for people through enhancing usability, safety, and effectiveness, and that creates sustainable, real-world impact.
