I'm a product designer in Austin who's spent 15 years designing products that help millions of people make big decisions about homes, money, and health. I've worked with teams at Realtor.com, USAA, Under Armour, and Goldman Sachs. At Realtor.com, I led the first major redesign of their native apps in a decade, driving 16% user growth and 4.4% revenue lift.
I do my best work at the intersection of strategy and craft, from exploring early concepts to designing details that scale across iOS, Android, and web. I'm drawn to messy problems and making them simple and clear.
When I'm not designing, I'm making pottery, biking around Austin, and arguing that Fast & Furious is cinema. My cat, Scrimp, remains unimpressed but supportive.
