Strengths

Curious

I’m analytical, always improving, asking "why" to understand users, and exploring new possibilities.

Dot connector

I synthesize data, influenced by my Enneagram 4w3 personality, to understand and solve problems.

Full stack

I have a diverse skill set, spanning research, strategy, design, prototyping, animation, and branding in product development.

Pre-visualizer

I intuitively turn strategies into early and tangible visions, often resulting in patent-worthy innovations.

Storyteller

I often use narratives to convey empathy, drawing from my past experience as a Writer and Director.

Outcome-driven

I shape my approach through outcomes, aligning user needs with business impact.

Beliefs

Seeing is believing

The faster you reach high-fidelity in the design process, the sooner everyone understands. Prototypes and visual mockups FTW.

Design is a process

Consistently using design as a practice, rather than just a deliverable, can enhance customer satisfaction and business strategy.

Convenience always wins

Simplicity is always the goal in product design. Overcomplicating things inevitably drives users away.

Remote work is a win-win

Since before the pandemic, I’ve seen healthy culture and transparent communication norms be highly beneficial for both employees and the company.

UX is the sum of its parts

For a product to stand out, its strategy, content, design, and execution must work together effectively.

Outside of work

I happily live in Nashville, Tennessee with my beautiful wife and our three awesome kids.

When I’m not busy with the family you can find me outdoors, usually on a dirtbike or fishing.
