I find clarity in complex, ambiguous product problems — diagnosing what actually matters and building momentum to ship work that sticks.

I design within complex enterprise SaaS platforms by defining and bringing strategic direction to life through usable, scalable product systems.

Currently driving onboarding, activation, and cross-surface platform initiatives at Cisco.

How I work

Designing for clarity in complexity

My background in studio art and learning shapes how I approach product work, balancing structured thinking with visual clarity and systems perspective.

Navigating ambiguity

I’m most effective in evolving problem spaces where goals are still forming and teams need alignment before moving forward.

Clarifying direction

I frame ambiguous problems and define the decision space so teams can make confident product choices.

Building shared understanding

I partner with product and engineering to surface assumptions, align on priorities, and ensure decisions remain coherent as products evolve.

Grounded in craft

Outside of product work, I maintain a hands-on creative practice in illustration and lettering, which keeps my thinking rooted in craft, composition, and visual clarity.
