“In cybersecurity UX, a second of confusion is a second of exposure. I design to eliminate hesitation.”

I'm a Senior Product Designer with 9+ years of experienceacross product-led companies. I've been the sole designer building entire products from scratch, and a senior contributor on platforms serving 10,000+ enterprise customers. I'm open to the right design opportunities across product, platform, enterprise, and technology teams.

Currently at Arctic Wolf Networks, designing mission-critical security workflows after the BlackBerry Cylance product-team transition into Arctic Wolf. Previously at BlackBerry Cylance, CSG Systems, SISA, Employee Experts Solutions, and Data Template.
