Experience

About

We are confronting the problem of pornography with a distinctly relational form of accountability that connects people who want to quit porn with others who can help them achieve lasting victory.

This has been a very gratifying chapter in my career, helping me to see the potential of design to drive life-changing results. Just as I had hoped when I joined CE, we're using technology to "redeem" itself, in a way. The stakes are enormously high, making it both a privilege and a heavy weight to carry.

Roles

• Lead Product Designer (Information Architect)

  Apr 2026 - Present ()

  • Conducted the most comprehensive conceptual audit of the platform to date, mapping every key object, relationship, and permission structure. This model is now driving account architecture decisions, and has already informed the retirement of a legacy role and a simplified setup process for new members.
  • Developed an AI-integrated design workflow that evaluates structural implications, generates interaction flows, and produces prototypes directly from the object model — bridging the gap between data architecture and UI design.
  • Serve as a cross-team design consultant, helping designers and product managers evaluate how new features integrate with existing system architecture — surfacing structural risks, dependencies, and opportunities that aren't visible at the feature level.
  • Redesigned notification preferences as the culmination of a multi-year effort to reshape the underlying system — enabling grouped, channel-level control that gives members meaningful choice. The first features leveraging this new structure have shipped, with more planned.
  • Mapped the device experience problem landscape (~30 distinct issues), identifying that a condensed set of solutions — anchored in elevating "Device" to a first-class system object — could resolve longstanding member confusion, align with engineering priorities, and positively impact retention.

• Senior Product Designer

  Mar 2024 - Mar 2026 (2 yrs)

  • Led cross-product alignment through conceptual modeling and information architecture, reducing semantic drift across teams.
  • Defined system architecture for notifications, mapping events to messages across channels and enabling scalable preference management.
  • Established a conceptual modeling practice (Object-Oriented UX) to help teams reason about system structure before implementation.
  • Elevated private messaging from an experiment to a core capability by restructuring navigation and interaction patterns.
  • Facilitated alignment on foundational concepts (e.g. Check-Ins), preventing downstream decision churn.
  • Advised on information architecture implications of a high-profile app renaming effort.

• UX Supervisor

  Oct 2022 - Mar 2024 (1 yr 6 mos)

  • Mentored three designers through advancement, supporting process maturity and career growth.
  • Led hiring for a design role from definition through final selection.

• Senior Product Designer

  Nov 2018 - Oct 2022 (4 yrs)

  • Audited and redesigned roles and permissions architecture, defining future-state models.
  • Designed internal and customer-facing systems for B2B programs, billing, and account management.
  • Led workshop series on semantic interaction design to improve shared language and decision-making.

About

What began as a scrappy startup of 2 dozen people when I joined (as their first design hire) had grown to become an innovative new division of 200+ by the time I left in 2018.

We started off with software that helped professional contractors specify and order custom roof trusses, which was a notoriously difficult and error-prone product line.

In 2014, we began building a comprehensive, searchable catalog of special-order products. This was the first time in-store sales associates could look up pricing without referring to printed price sheets or picking up the phone.

That became a powerful estimation and quoting platform that helped Home Depot gain marketshare with pro contractors. It was rolled out to over 2,000 Home Depot stores in the U.S. and, in 2017, processed $5.7b in quotes and $1.4m in sales.
