I rebuild design functions that were set up to fail. Structural software for truss fabricators. Autism care inside a health insurer. Thirteen industries before those. Different problem every time, same gap in the same place, and almost nobody inside the building can see it.
Why me
Charter, roles and a career ladder people can climb. It works when I am not in the room.
Research runs all year with a named owner, so design stops losing arguments on taste.
I prototype and build the tools myself. AI goes into how the team works, not into a slide.
Healthcare, engineering, travel, finance. I know where to look first.
How I work
Users, team and the people who sign the checks. The gap is usually in the same place.
If it lives in one head, it is a habit, not a function.
Research on a cadence, prototypes in days, and a number leadership can argue with.
Every call trades something away. Naming it first keeps the room honest.
What you get
Clear ownership, roles that match the roadmap, designers who stay.
Working prototypes in front of users before engineering commits.
Conversion, adoption, retention and cost to serve. Not taste.
Case studies
One password opens every case study.
