I ship products at the intersection of design and code

I help ship products at the intersection of AI capability and human need. Leading design teams by leveraging emerging technologies and defining new processes to reinvent how and what we deliver.

Design philosophy

"The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence — it is to act with yesterday's logic."

— Peter Drucker

I don't like the rush to embed new technologies into everything we interact with just for names sake, but I do believe we are witnessing the biggest shift in everything we know since the birth of the internet. The real leverage comes from treating AI as just another technology to power a feature. It's important we remember that we are still designing for humans, and therefore the same principles we work by today still apply. I've spent the last two years testing and building this in practice: defining playbooks, retraining teams, and navigating the enterprise-scale challenges of AI-first design so that it can become the default, rather than simply an experiment.

2020 — Present

Lead Product Designer

TCS Interactive (Formerly W12 Studios)

As part of the Creative Engineering studio within TCS Interactive, I have been solving complex enterprise scale product problems and shipping experiences for across BFSI, Health, and logistics. I have also been heavily involved in defining and implementing the transition to code-first ways of working

Key Activities

  • Mercury Financial: Led iOS app revamp helping users with poor credit scores track and improve their credit health. Navigated internal politics and a mid-project rebrand pivot while maintaining design momentum and stakeholder alignment. The product overhaul supported a $250m acquisition of the company.
  • Huntington Bank: Led a multi-phase engagement. Phase 1 unauthenticated marketing redesign drove a 17% conversion increase through improved discovery funnels and product comparison UX, directly enabling Phase 2 app and web AI strategy.
  • Nest Pensions: Senior/lead designer on their member portal revamp, owning contributions flows end-to-end.
  • Protective Life Insurance: Led 3 designers on the redesign of Annuities and Life insurance Get a Quote journeys — resulting in a 22% decrease in drop-off during the Annuities journey and 30% on the Life insurance equivalent.
  • Mentored and line managed designers throughout their careers at TCS, and drove studio-wide adoption of AI-augmented delivery across the design team.
