My design approach

I design systems-first, partner early across disciplines, and prioritize clarity, control, and long-term trust.

• I frame problems at the system level before moving into screens
• I partner closely with engineering, product, legal, and policy early
• I design for edge cases, failure states, and long term trust
• I test concepts through prototypes, data, and real constraints
• I prioritize clarity, control, and user confidence over novelty
• I navigate ambiguous AI and platform problems
• Turning policy and risk into usable experiences
• Bridging design, engineering, and trust requirements
• Shipping durable systems, not one off features

Background

02

Platform and System Design

Framing problems at the system level across products and services.

03

Human-Centered Risk Policy

Turning legal, policy, and risk constraints into usable experiences.

04

Complex Product UX
