McKinsey & Company
Most recently, I was a principal designer at McKinsey, where I led the redesign of the core tools for our pricing and financial models, working across the firm to create a modern, unified design language that placed emphasis on forecasting and reporting scenarios on a canvas. This work touched every aspect of our practice’s engagements, from core inputs and controls to reporting surfaces and workflow logic.
2018–2021
Google Finance
Google's finance team was building a suite of new products, and I explored both how we would extend a common design language across our new products and functionally how these products would work together as a workflow.

Meta Developers’ App Dashboard
One of my favorite projects was redesigning the developer experience at Meta. One of the recurring themes was turning a lot of signals into something you can act on, which meant clear navigation, consistent status models, and errors that explain themselves. Across dashboards and configuration surfaces, I focused on the moments where people get stuck, and on giving them a clean next step.

Speech Recognition and Synthesis API
I often build demos to explore small features or ideas I'm excited about, using them as a way to spark curiosity and get my colleagues thinking about new possibilities.
One example was a small prototype for speech recognition and synthesis, focused on making voice state explicit and recovery easy. It covers the full loop from permissions and listening to live transcript and spoken output, with timeouts, retries, and bilingual switching.
2016–2017
Nest × Yale Lock
I was the sole designer embedded with our data team working on the Nest x Yale Lock. And one of my favorite parts of this work was getting the interaction to feel trustworthy, which is mostly about timing, feedback, and what happens when the world is messy. I designed the press and hold control with a circular progress ring, along with a shared state and error system.
2016–2017
Google Assistant Actions on Nest
On my time with the data team, I worked on a system health monitor that connected summary signals to drill ins and routing, with a status model that stayed readable with messy data.
2016
Focus prototype
I built an app with PhotoKit as a practical way to learn non destructive editing models. I built the core adjustment loop with crop, rotation, and tone and color controls
