I build what people need.

Director of Product Design with 15+ years across SaaS, fintech, and compliance-driven platforms. I work from the business out: systems, research, and a prototype you can click, not only a file.

Why I love enterprise design

Enterprise software isn't chosen. It's assigned: the system a job runs on, for hours every day. People can't leave, so how you design it matters more.

I like designing inside that complexity. Roles, permissions, workflows, legacy, compliance, real risk. Finding clarity where the business and the people using it both get what they need.

At work

Currently Director of Product Design at CloudTax in Ontario, Canada. Before that I was Chief Design Officer at Ollyo and Design Systems Manager at BuddyBoss: multi-product teams, systems, and products used by millions.

Elsewhere

Long rides on empty highways. Hills. Music. Community talks and the occasional meetup. If that sounds familiar, say hello.

How I work

Business needs and user needs get equal weight. Balanced design, not one ahead of the other. Research and a prototype you can click beat a polished file that never ships. On SaaS, fintech, and compliance work, that balance is what keeps the product honest.
