I lead product design teams across time zones, turning confusing platforms into market-ready products. Fast.

From hated to market
Rebuilt R/GA's core business platform from a powerful-but-hated internal tool into a product the agency now runs on day to day, and that outside agencies licensed.
UX from zero, for 1M+ customers
Built the UX function from zero across 20+ brands and 1M+ customers, tying every initiative to conversion and revenue from day one.
