Principal Designer

.hello

I'm a Principal Product Designer making complex AI products feel easier. I'm a historian (MA) and Fulbright scholar who's spent years analyzing how messy systems behave over time.

That's still the work: reading products and research like primary sources, then turning signal into simple experiences. Research, strategy, and design as one craft.
