Framework.
Design isn’t just about what something looks like. It’s about how it works, why it matters, and who it serves. I collaborate closely with product, engineering, research, and other partners at every stage to shape thoughtful, scalable experiences.
Understand the Problem
Before designing anything, I zoom out to define what success actually looks like.
What are the business goals?
Who experiences this problem, and why does it matter to them?
How would solving it move the needle?
What are our guiding principles?
What do we know? What do we need to learn?
Tell the Story
With a shared understanding of the problem, I help teams align around a clear vision and narrative for the experience.
What’s the vision?
What does an aspirational happy path look like?
Where are we starting, and what’s the broader journey?
What assumptions are we making?
What risks are we taking?
What edge cases might influence our direction?
Execute with Intention
I work closely with engineers and PMs to translate vision into reality—without losing sight of the system.
Where does this show up in the product?
How does it look and feel?
How does it connect with the rest of the experience?
What’s technically feasible?
What are we building first? And why?
What can we prototype or test along the way?
Launch & Learn
After launch, I continue collaborating across disciplines to measure, adapt, and learn.
Are we meeting the goals we set?
What’s happening that we didn’t expect?
How are we validating (or disproving) our assumptions?
What’s next?
