is a senior designer at Adobe in NYC.

I'm not just looking to create a beautiful face for the product— I want to help to define its entire direction. My passion lies in creating great products and services.

My work includes designing for devices large and small and everything in between. Currently at Behance in Adobe, where I work on everything from product strategy and management to designing compelling user experiences.

CURRENT PROJECTS

 

Adobe

2013 - Present

Responsible for designing and delivering major product features on behance.net. I love taking bigger conceptual ideas and transforming them into simple and elegant experiences. I have an active and often leading role in brainstorming/ideation sessions and design critiques. I also advocate for our members and work on user experience principles for our web and mobile ecosystem.

Before every project, I work with business stakeholders and the design/dev team to determine requirements, conduct competitor analysis and review stakeholder interviews, articulate user needs, and translate those needs into concepts and elegant interface designs. I then create high-level user stories, prototypes, design mockups, specs, and production assets.

I'm involved with the entire process of building new features: I collaborate with engineering to build and ship those features, and I prioritize enhancements and new features while communicating product vision and business priorities to engineering, design, customer research, and analysis teams. I am active in the launch of the product, and I frequently refine our design solutions in the face of data, heuristic review, and user feedback.
