01 / HELLO
I design for complexity —
where systems meet
the human.
Enterprise UX · HCI · Art & Composition
Enterprise systems where the stakes are high and the edge cases matter. I work at the threshold of art, systems, and meaning — asking the questions that make organizations uncomfortable, because those are usually the right ones.
Currently at Johnson Controls — available for Mid to Senior Product Design roles.
02 / PRINCIPLES
How I think about
design.
01
Writing is my first design tool
Before I design, I write. It helps me break down complex problems, connect decisions across the system, and ensure I’m solving the right thing—not just jumping to solutions.
02
I see design as a system of relationships
Design doesn’t just live in screens. It lives in how people, tools, and decisions interact. I look for patterns across these connections to create solutions that hold up at scale.
03
I design from proven patterns
I don’t start from scratch when a pattern already works. I look across domains, maps, editing tools, dashboards, to understand what users already know, then adapt it to fit the problem. It helps me move faster, stay consistent, and build on proven mental models.
03 / WORK
Design in
action.
04 / PROCESS
My Design process.
Before anything is sketched or mapped, I write — not notes, but actual questions I don't have answers to yet: what does this system assume about its users? What is everyone in the room incurious about? What would I need to believe for this brief to be true? Sitting with those questions long enough is the work. The rest follows.
05 / ABOUT
Not just a designer. The one who pictures everyone.
I trained as an artist before I trained as a designer. My B.S. in Animation and Illustration gave me an eye for composition, narrative, and the weight of visual decisions. My M.S. in Human-Computer Interaction gave me the language for systems, research, and the humans inside them.
For three years at Johnson Controls, I've been building enterprise products for users in high-trust, high-stakes environments. I work best at the edges, where the edge case exposes the system, where the user the brief forgot turns out to be the most important one.
I read philosophy. I write essays. I ask why more than is comfortable. it's how I design.
