About

I make complex, technical products feel simple to use.

I've spent 10+ years designing enterprise SaaS and consumer products across genomics, cybersecurity and fintech, taking them from 0→1 to scale.

At DNAstack I was the founding designer of the Omics AI suite, shaping product strategy and UX from inception through launch across three interconnected platform products used by research institutes, pharma and government organizations globally.

Before that I spent six years as a Design Technologist at Nuspire Networks in cybersecurity, designing ticketing, billing and dashboard systems and building the design system for its product suite.

Outside of my corporate work I run an independent design practice where I build consumer products across fintech, utility and creative software. It's where I do my most unconstrained thinking and stay sharp across problem spaces.

I'm based in Toronto and looking for a remote Staff Product Designer role where I can work at the intersection of product strategy, systems thinking and hands-on craft.
