The Journey

From building game worlds to designing systems that serve millions.

The Full Story

I got into design through game development, building worlds at Blizzard and Carbine where every detail mattered and every decision touched millions of players. That's where I learned that great work isn't a solo act. It happens when people trust each other, share openly, and care enough to get the details right. I carried that through Disney, Mozilla, PayPal, CVS Health, Mark43, and HubSpot, always drawn to complex problems and the kind of teams that make solving them feel energizing.

I'm happiest when I'm building alongside others: mentoring a designer through their first big launch, getting lost in a prototype until it feels just right, or helping a team find clarity when everything feels uncertain. I've led organizations and I've been hands-on-keyboard, and I genuinely love both. Today at ServiceNow, I'm bringing all of that to AI-powered products, making complex technology feel simple, useful, and human.

Quick answers

Why did you transition from game development to enterprise product design?

Games taught me how to build worlds that keep people engaged. Enterprise design is the same challenge at a different scale: complex systems, diverse users, and the need to make every interaction intuitive. The shift felt less like a pivot and more like a natural evolution.

Do you still write code?

Yes. I prototype in code regularly and believe designers who understand engineering constraints build better products. It also keeps me close to the craft and helps me communicate effectively with development teams.

Are you open to new opportunities?

I'm always interested in meaningful work. If you have a role or project where design leadership and systems thinking intersect, feel free to reach out through the footer below.

Are you available for speaking or collaborations?

Absolutely. I enjoy speaking about design leadership, AI-driven product design, and bridging creative and technical disciplines. Reach out and let's find the right fit.
