Between making
and leading.
Design that
gets it right.

My career has lived in that gap. I build teams that are engaged and creatively ambitious, and I stay close enough to the work to push it further.

Right now I'm leading four platforms at BNY and helping rethink what AI-first means for product designers. Not the hype, the real operational shift from idea to execution. Before that: a startup pod inside JPMorgan, product and design leadership at Clear Street, design systems across AIG, agency-side and client-side. It always comes back to the same thing: deep empathy for the end user, and refusing to stop short.
