How I work

I don’t follow a fixed process. I focus on solving the problem in the simplest way possible.

• Use research when needed - not by default  
• Prototype fast when speed matters  
• Simplify anything that feels complex  

I work closely with product and engineering to ship quickly and iterate based on real feedback.

How I design and ship faster with AI

Instead of starting with long PRDs, I start with ideas - and turn them into testable prototypes within hours.

How I work now

• Start with a rough idea or problem 
• Use AI + tools like Magic Patterns to quickly prototype flows 
• Validate early with internal teams and real users 
• Iterate based on feedback instead of assumptions 
• Use AI-assisted workflows (MCP, Claude) to translate designs into implementation faster 

changes

What this changes

• Faster idea → validation cycles 
• Less dependency on heavy documentation 
• More focus on real user feedback 
• Closer collaboration with engineering 

AI accelerates execution - but clarity still comes from design thinking.

Operating Principles

problem first

Problem first

I focus on solving the right problem before jumping into solutions. Sometimes that means doing research, talking to sales, or sitting with engineering.

comfortable ambiguity

Navigate ambiguity

Whether it's a 0→1 product or improving a mature platform, I break complexity into clear flows and decisions that teams can execute on.

collaborate

Collaborate across functions

I collaborate closely with product, engineering, and sales to align business goals with user needs - partnering with leadership to ship at scale.

build systems

Build scalable systems

I care about systems over isolated screens. Scalable patterns and practical design decisions that reduce friction and make implementation easier.

Experience across high-growth startups and scaled platforms

Products used by millions of users and growing businesses.
