Product Design Leadership

I take full ownership of product design — from roadmap to release. I drive product strategy, accelerate 0 → 1 execution, and lead teams. Open to full-time roles as a Senior/Lead/Staff Product Designer.

Or work with me in a more focused capacity:
Advisory & Strategy

Short-term audits, unblocking stalled initiatives, and design strategy for early-stage teams.

0 → 1 Design Sprints

Fast-paced prototyping and core feature definition to move from concept to validated product quickly.

Workshops & Speaking

Hands-on sessions on bridging craft with business metrics, scaling design orgs, and building organizational influence.
