Product design leadership for AI, infrastructure, and high-stakes platforms.

I'm a Head of Product Design and co-founder. I set the design direction, build the team, and turn complex, ambiguous problems into systems people trust enough to act on — partnering closely with founders, engineers, and executives from first principles to shipped platform.

I build systems, not screens.

My work focuses on translating ambiguity into structured architecture. Whether designing AI scoring frameworks, operational infrastructure, or multi-sided marketplaces, I define the foundational systems that enable products to scale.

Strong design leadership aligns product vision, system logic, and execution clarity — from first principle to shipped experience.

Core Focus Areas

About

I'm a product design leader and co-founder. My core is design leadership — I set the vision, frame the problem, and raise the craft bar, then lead designers to execute and extend the work. As a co-founder and fractional CPO, that leadership extends into product direction: I own roadmap, ratify decisions, and hold every choice to a revenue, engagement, and retention test.

My career has focused on translating early product vision into structured architecture that scales. I partner closely with founders, engineers, and executive stakeholders to define systems from first principle through validation and growth. I work best where design has real strategic weight — where the problem space is complex, the stakes are high, and the systems need to last.

I'm currently focused on Head of Product Design and Director of Product Design roles across AI, fintech, infrastructure, and complex platform environments.

Let’s build intelligent systems together.

I'm most energized by hard, ambiguous problems — the kind where you have to define the system before you can design the product. If you're building in AI, fintech, infrastructure, or complex platforms and looking for someone to lead design, I'd love to connect.
