Some of the cool folks I've worked with
Here's a look at some of the cool problems I've solved over the years.
I'm a principal product designer based in New York City with over 15 years of experience building digital products people actually want to use.
Right now I'm building the design system at Clay, where I work across foundations, components, and the culture that keeps a design system alive.
Before Clay I've worked with PayPal, Hodinkee, Asurion, Spotify, and a handful of others — on everything from enterprise B2B tools to luxury e-commerce experiences to design systems that outlasted my time there.
I care about craft, clarity, and making things that hold up under pressure. When I'm not designing, I'm probably looking at watches.
