I take products from a rough brief to a shipped system. Research to find the real problem, then the structure, the design system, and the details, worked out alongside the engineers who build it.

I design the paths that don’t end in success. Trust is built or lost when things go wrong, so the recovery lanes get the same attention as the happy path.
