What I do
I design and lead design systems so teams can stop arguing about implementation and focus on real product decisions.
Components, tokens, patterns, and documentation are the output. Alignment, speed, and consistency at scale are the result. My work supports dozens of designers and engineers working across multiple product teams.
How I do it
I work systemically and pragmatically, combining product thinking, system governance, and strong technical fluency.
My focus is on interaction design, motion, and token-based systems that scale across products and platforms. With a background in web development, I collaborate closely with engineers to build systems that are resilient and accessible under real-world constraints.
Where this matters
I have 6+ years of product design experience, including 3 years leading a design system team in complex B2B products and last mile delivery.
These environments are messy, fast-moving, and unforgiving. Design systems here aren’t optional. They’re infrastructure teams rely on every day.
