Clarity for complex products.
I turn ambiguous, data-rich product spaces into clear, polished experiences across mobile, AI and health.
Work
From sustainability intelligence to AI-enabled mobile tools and health experiences — selected projects where complexity needed direction.






I work where product complexity meets human clarity.
I’m a product designer with 15+ years of experience, including nearly six years across Fitbit and Google. I help teams turn ambiguous spaces into coherent product direction, strong interaction models and experiences ready to ship.
My work spans native mobile, AI, healthcare, sustainability data and complex platforms. I partner closely with product, engineering, research, legal and domain experts — without losing sight of craft.
