I am a designer and strategist with a proven track record of leading design initiatives across industries, from fintech and enterprise software to advertising and education. I am adept at creating seamless digital experiences by aligning user needs with business objectives, leveraging expertise in interaction design, information architecture, and data visualization.

I have extensive experience in building and managing design systems, improving product usability, and mentoring teams. I have a strong background in teaching and thought leadership, with faculty roles at RISD and Lesley University. I successfully launched patented digital products and driven UX transformations at top companies, including Meta, Google, Fidelity, and Liberty Mutual. I am passionate about crafting intuitive, high-impact user experiences that bridge technology and human-centered design.

As Lead Product Designer at Meta, I enhanced the Ads Manager platform by introducing features like inline guidance and AI-powered audience expansion to help advertisers increase reach and reduce costs. My design solutions focused on giving users control and clarity, which led to significant growth in ad revenue.

As Principal Designer at Fidelity, I led the integration of fractional trading into the Flagship Mobile app to help investors buy portions of high-priced stocks. Aiming for a fast launch in a competitive space, I conducted user research to identify pain points and clarified confusing aspects like dollar-based limits. I refined the design based on these insights, leading to a successful release that generated $2 million in daily profits and brought in a wave of new customers. I continued to improve the experience with streamlined trading flows and a full mobile design system to support both new and experienced investors.

​As a designer at Google, I led the integration of Stackdriver into Google Cloud Monitoring, streamlining the onboarding process and enhancing dashboard legibility, which significantly improved user engagement and retention. I developed a comprehensive charting component library for Google Cloud, creating intuitive data visualizations that enabled developers to efficiently interpret complex data. Additionally, I designed a versatile calendar component accommodating various user needs and collaborated with cross-functional teams to create the Metric Explorer tool, facilitating the exploration and monitoring of custom metrics within the platform.​

​As Lead Strategist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia's website redesign, I conducted stakeholder interviews and comprehensive assessments of information, data, and accessibility. This work led to the development of a structured system that improved user journeys, information architecture, and community engagement.​

​As the founder and Chief Product Officer of Shapemix, I developed an innovative music mixing platform that transformed audio tracks into spatially manipulable shapes, making music mixing intuitive and accessible. Through extensive research and user-centered design, we launched an iPad application that allowed users, particularly those aged 10-16, to engage creatively with music by adjusting volume and stereo positioning through simple gestures. Despite challenges like optimizing for the iPad's early hardware limitations and managing complex audio data, our focus on simplicity and immediate usability led to a product that resonated with users and provided a gateway to music production and engineering.​
