Staff Product Designer at Workiva

I design complex enterprise products and AI workflows that scale design quality across teams.

Currently, I lead AI projects on the Financial Reporting team at Workiva. Along the way, I developed AI workflows that enabled engineering teams to ship UI updates independently, and designed core reporting tools that drove a 35% increase in YoY bookings.

At Chase, I built a virtual meeting platform connecting clients nationwide with thousands of wealth advisors, earning a 9.5/10 client rating at launch.

Turning complexity into simplicity

I found my way into product design by sitting in on design team standups, picking up extra projects after hours, and eventually enrolling in General Assembly to close the gap. I’ve been pulling up a chair ever since.

Today, I’m a Staff Product Designer working at the cross-section of complex enterprise SaaS and AI tooling, balancing business outcomes with craft.

My main passion is turning complexity into simplicity. When things get muddled, I resort to first principles: who we’re building for, what’s the job to be done, and why it matters.

Outside of work, I'm a dad, a drummer, and a perpetual learner. Lately, that's meant AI coding tools, growing a garden for the first time, and using Claude to tell me how many 2x4s to get at Home Depot (always wrong).

There's always something muddled waiting to be simplified. That hasn't changed.
