What I’ve been up to

Senior Product Designer - Google, via Media Monks, San Francisco, CA - May 2025 - Dec 2025

Actionable data…
At Google, I worked as a Senior Product Designer supporting teams within the Knowledge & Information organization, focusing on how merchants understand and act on their business performance. I owned the design of Merchant Performance Reports, a eporting experience that translated complex data into clear insights and recommended actions. The goal was simple and human: help busy merchants make confident decisions without feeling overwhelmed. I led the work from early exploration through limited rollout across the US and UK, collaborating closely with product, engineering, research, and design systems partners in preparation for a future global launch.

Senior Product Designer - Irreverent Labs, Seattle, WA - Mar 2023 - Sept 2024

From text to video…
At Irreverent Labs, I worked on generative AI products at the intersection of creativity, technology, and play. I led end-to-end UX/UI for Supermodel.ai, shaping the product experience, design system, and visual language as the platform evolved from early exploration through beta. I also contributed to Mecha Fight Club, an AI-driven game experience, focusing on user flow and interface design to make complex systems feel approachable and fun.

Design Director - Loupe Tech, Inc, Miami, FL - Feb 2021 - Feb 2023

Pixels and Pitchers
I served as Design Director at Loupe, building and mentoring a multidisciplinary team across product, content, and marketing. I owned the end-to-end creative execution of the Loupe Sports Cards livestreaming app, helping shape a platform that blended commerce, community, and entertainment. I also developed the brand language and component system that kept the experience cohesive as the company scaled.

Creative Director - Summer Design Studio, San Francisco, CA - Jun 2020 - Feb 2023

Pixels on a mission…
Through my studio work, I partnered with socially driven organizations focused on education, public health, and community impact. My role blended creative direction and hands-on design, helping teams communicate complex ideas with clarity and empathy. Projects ranged from education platforms serving underserved communities to public health and fundraising initiatives supporting LGBTQIA+ organizations.

At the end of the day…

My creativity is fueled by a combination of my background in animation/illustration, fun-natured quirkiness, border-line unhealthy obsession with science-fiction and comic books, and fully-charged iPad and Procreate loaded with a number of different sketches and doodles that keep me goin’ each day. Oh, and a constantly-filled mug of coffee next to a plate full of dumplings or a bowl full of noodles.

Not-so-Frequently Asked Questions
