I'm a Principal Product Designer focused on complex B2B software, ERP, fintech, payroll, government and other high-consequence products.

I like hard software more than blank canvases: existing products, legacy constraints, migrations, acquisitions, complicated business rules and platform transformations where some constraints can’t simply be designed away. I’ve lived through several technology shifts and seen the full lifecycle of complex software.

I also build with AI. I use agents to prototype and ship working software, explore unfamiliar technical problems and learn by building.

Complex Product Design

ERP, fintech, payroll, government and high-consequence B2B software.

Transformation & Legacy Complexity

Migrations, acquisitions, platform consolidation and existing architecture.

AI-Native Product Design

New interaction models where AI changes how products work.

Systems That Scale

IA, interaction patterns, design systems, tokens and tools that keep complex products coherent.

Oracle NetSuite

Making AI coherent across an ERP

NetSuite is an ERP used by more than 43,000 businesses in 220 countries. I worked on the foundations and AI experience, from the underlying design system to the NetSuite home dashboard, collaborating with product and engineering to introduce new AI behaviours into an established, complex product.

Building AI before the patterns existed

Global payroll and EOR across 187 countries. I designed and shipped an AI assistant in 2022, then used customer research to reshape how customers explored global employment costs.

LSEG / Refinitiv

Redesigning a complex financial platform

I led the redesign of Refinitiv's product experience during its migration into LSEG, working across complex financial workflows and an established product ecosystem. The work involved simplifying existing experiences while navigating the constraints of a large-scale platform transformation.

Your AI can write the UI, this makes sure it writes your UI.

Finds where your AI agent will likely invent UI. Scores repos 0–100 against a 112-repo benchmark, teaches the agent through rules and a local MCP server, and checks every edit. 28K+ npm downloads.

SkyWatch Command

Exploring multimodal interaction for complex operational software

What if you deleted the mouse and keyboard? A live satellite mission control run by voice and hand: MediaPipe tracks your gestures through the webcam, Claude Haiku parses what you say into commands, and one dispatcher keeps every input coherent. Back in satellite territory after OneWeb.

The Proffer interface: a live preview of the product beside the change history

Exploring safe autonomy for product teams

I built an AI workflow that connects to a real codebase, understands its design system, makes requested changes and opens them for developer review. I explored where AI can act independently and where human control still matters.
