The through-line is complexity that can't be simplified away.
I'm a product designer, which usually means…
writing the spec first
running user research
building design systems
shaping product strategy
making data readable
writing PRDs
doing UX audits

How I work
Figure out what's actually going on, find the distinctions that matter, and design around those rather than around the org chart or the database. It usually means writing the spec before drawing anything.
Works well with
Engineers who want to show the machinery
Founders who need the story to land
Domains where I start out knowing nothing
Where I've been
Based in New York. Previously at eVero and Aristto, currently at DigiChem.
A chemist choosing a synthesis route, a researcher working through a hundred papers, a care coordinator documenting a visit: none of them can be handed a simpler version of their job. What they can be handed is an interface that shows the right thing at the right moment, and is honest about what the system is doing underneath.
