About me.

I'm an design manager and product person with a diverse background currently working in Artificial Intelligence design strategy for Southwest Airlines in Dallas, TX.

My strengths are helping clients solve the right problems and making sure talented multi-disciplined teams of all sizes are able to get awesome work done.

I've led teams of researchers, UX designers, and developers on a breadth of successful projects including Fortune 50 digital transformations, design system implementations and governance, high-end ecommerce, large-scale enterprise content management solutions, and native mobile apps for small startups.

I have a passion for creating intuitive and enjoyable digital experiences both for clients and for my independent projects. With almost 20 years of UX consulting experience, I use my wealth of knowledge in user-centered design and usability research along with a background in business and technology to solve hard problems.

When Iā€™m not staring at my MacBook screen, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two kiddos, tinkering with some new technology, playing video games, or obsessively knocking films off my Letterboxd watchlist.
