About

I make room for magic. I take projects and companies from an idea, through discovery, to validation, and beyond. I believe strongly that every good idea deserves a strong foundation and I provide that through exceptional discovery, design systems, strategy, and road-mapping. I believe in building consensus as much as building products and love democratizing design in all sizes of organization.

Product Design Lead

Double Crown Gaming, Doubles | Full-time

Mar 2020 - Apr 2021

Two weeks before the pandemic shut everything down, I joined Doubles as the product design lead on their promising live sports product. Live sports. Two weeks before the pandemic. Pivoted with the founder and head of engineering to add new features, experiences, and a hearty design system while sports were away.

  • Conceived, designed, and sherpherded development of a separate, trivia and chat-based play mode in place of the core picks mechanic after the pandemic
  • Helped transition the product to purchase by a major sports team to expand their fan experience.

Design Lead

Green Stone | Full-time

Mar 2017 - Jun 2020

Introduced to GS through a friend who needed my help in work they were doing and stuck around for a long while. From Twitter, Michaels, and AMEX to a bonkers garage company called the Economic Space Agency, I was a combination of strategy, experience design, and visual lead, that did a heap of design systems. Go use a MinuteKey kiosk at Lowes, you'll see what I did.

Adjunct Faculty

Scottsdale Community College | Adjunct

Jan 2014 - Dec 2016

Projects

From learning platform to scholastic competition powerhouse at Rookly

Freelance

Jun 2024 - Present

I have worked with the team at Rookly to rework and refine their scholastic chess league experience, from a fine idea with a handful of schools to a platform capable of sustaining triple digit growth season over season. I created and helped implement a robust design system and refined product vision that allowed Rookly's engineers to make rapid improvements to rave reviews.

2024 Growing up from clinical trials to app store release at BumptUp Labs

Fractional CTO

Feb 2024 - Present

Originally helping to audit the beta BumptUp experience, then leading the charge on a redesign and replatforming of the app while with codelab303, to now serving as a fractional CTO has allowed me a prime vantage point to see a great idea come to life. I've helped with experience and visual design, go-to-market strategy, vendor selection and engineering challenges, and the creation and implementation of new features. https://vimeo.com/839122460

Onboard 3000 dealers, 1000 skus, and teach an org how to fish at Alta Window Fashions with codelab303

@codelab303

Sep 2023 - Jan 2024

Help an awesome group of folks take their mostly offline business online, while playing nice with a group of very experienced (and opionated dealers) AND documenting it all in a deep design system. Some of the most robust research and discovery I've done, starting with the normal good stuff and ending up with a group of two dozen rockstars over two days in Boulder. Results? HUGE SEO lift. And dollars.

Taking seven figures of licensing fees and replacing it with bespoke software at Carvana with codelab303

@codelab303

Mar 2023 - Jan 2024

I hopped on a call in 2023 as the head of strategy, experience, and design at codelab303 to discuss a new software project with Carvana. Previous projects had been audacious, this one was...wild. As the sole research, designer, and strategist on the project, I managed to replace not just the existing mess of Google sites in use, but also a confluence license, while getting more value out of other software AND connecting a workforce of 20,000 employees.
