Good design is invisible in the best way. It does what it’s supposed to without asking the person using it to work harder than they should, or making them conform to a single path. That means clarity and inclusion have to be there from the start.
Growing up in Queens in an immigrant family, I became the translator between institutions and my parents, helping them navigate systems that assumed a fluency they didn't have. My brother Felix, who was autistic, showed me early on that the world makes a lot more sense when someone takes the time to break it down carefully.
Since 2015, I’ve designed digital products in consumer e-commerce, financial services, enterprise B2B, and student transportation. I’ve been the sole digital designer at a growing e-commerce brand and the first US design hire at a consultancy, running discovery, research, and interface work end to end. In every domain I started the same way, by finding out what the person on the other end was trying to do and what stood in the way.
More recently, caregiving for my family has continued through the loss of my brother Felix and a layoff. That period sits at the center of Anchor, a caregiver dashboard I’m building, named for him. It reflects what I wish had existed in those years. It also clarified what I want to keep building toward: products that serve the people with the least margin for error.
I’m looking for senior design roles where I can help existing services serve the people they were built for.
Let's chat.
