I'm not just another designer, I'm a strategic partner.

I help startups solve big product design problems to create a sleek user experience with major sales appeal.

I don’t just work with anyone. I focus on early-stage startups that have excellent engineers.

As I continue in my career, I am interested in investigating the intricacies of the human condition through design. In doing so, I believe we can collaboratively create beautiful and enduring artifacts that can provide people with genuine value, and hopefully a little bit of truth.

EXPERIENCE

Spawn

Founding Product Designer

After Pluto’s acquisition by Robinhood, I joined the team’s next venture to build Spawn. We started as a text-to-app generator and pivoted into games — turning prompts into playable experiences that ship fast, iterate faster, and are built to be shared.

GeoSpy

Lead Product Designer

I joined GeoSpy to turn images into actionable location intelligence. We built workflows that help teams move from a single photo to grounded leads — surfacing signals clearly, supporting investigation context, and making results easier to trust and act on.

Ari

Lead Product Designer

I led product design for Ari, an AI personal stylist built around conversation. The goal was to make style discovery feel personal and lightweight — capturing intent quickly, translating it into a curated “rack,” and keeping the loop fun, guided, and repeatable.

Pluto

Product Designer

I joined Pluto to build an AI-driven investing experience that makes research feel fast, clear, and actionable. I led product design across core flows and the design system — tightening UX, improving information hierarchy, and raising craft across the product.


Five months after I joined
Pluto was acquired by Robinhood.

CreativeKit

Product Designer

I built CreativeKit as an unlimited design service for early-stage startups — replacing unreliable freelancers and expensive agencies with one flat monthly fee. The model was fully async, unlimited requests and revisions, delivered in a few business days, with a deliberately limited client roster to keep quality high.

EpochML

Product Designer

I joined Epoch to help game studios test and iterate with less friction. We streamlined how teams capture feedback, review sessions, and spot patterns — turning playtesting from a messy process into a reliable loop that supports faster decisions and better releases.

Visual Content Creator

I created visual content for Finesse, an AI-driven fashion house. The work supported a model built around demand signals — helping trend-led products come to life with clearer storytelling, stronger aesthetic consistency, and assets designed to convert attention into action.

Elliot

Visual Content Creator

I created visual content for Elliot, a commerce stack built for global selling. The focus was making the value feel obvious — fast setup, frictionless checkout, and worldwide fulfillment. Packaged through visuals that made the product approachable and the benefits easy to grasp.
