Experience
These are the experience highlights that make me proud to be a designer.
-
Whether it is native mobile or web, responsive or mobile-first, Bootstrap, MUI, or Tailwind Elements, I’ve Designed through all of it. People experience cross-platform and it needs to be thoughtfully done regardless of where it is done. When it comes to the big picture or the fine details of the UI, I’m ready to go.
-
From grills to robots, I’ve worked with the engineers on the hardware and software side to create digital products that people can and want to use. Instead of the highly technical nature of hardware integrations being a blocker, I see it as a way to help inform the user and to create a streamlined but delightful approach.
-
While my experience here isn’t vast, it is certainly in-depth. From creating decision trees for Alexa and Google Home to designing a companion watch app for a connected device, I’m ready to serve the user.
-
In the robotics space, I’ve helped design a system to manage a fleet of different types of robots that follow a user-friendly and consistent design language. This included providing an interface for building out instructions for the robot to execute, visualizing multiple robots on a single LiDAR map, an interface embedded on a screen that was worn on the wrist, and showing vital robot statistics embedded on the physical robot.
-
Whether I’m collaborating with developers leveraging tools like Cursor AI or v0 to rapidly prototype with code, or using Figma AI to create interactive design flows, I’m fully equipped — and excited — to thrive in the AI-driven future.
-
Ease of use and aesthetics need not be sacrificed for ADA Compliance or foreign language translations. I’ve worked tirelessly with developers and testers to create interfaces that are WCAG Level AA compliant and scalable for multiple foreign languages.
