Architect by training. Product designer by practice.

I spent six years studying architecture: a five-year degree at Woodbury University, including three years working in its digital fabrication lab, then a master’s at UCLA focused on user experience and emerging technology. Architecture taught me to think in systems, circulation and scale, and to draw the plan before the detail.

In 2019 I took that into software. I started at Walmart’s innovation incubator, designing how people shop in virtual reality, a medium with no conventions to lean on. At Southern California Edison I designed the tools field crews use to inspect electrical infrastructure. Since 2022 I have been at Wongdoody, where I lead UX on Chevron’s enterprise scheduling platform and work with clients in finance and media.

The common thread is expert work: schedulers, trade specialists, inspectors. They know their jobs far better than I ever will, and the software has to earn its place in their day. That is the kind of problem I like most.
