Transforming complex data
into intuitive experiences.
4+ years designing enterprise data products, most recently AI-first tools. I turn complexity into flows people can actually understand and trust.
AI First Cohort Builder
Led a 10-week sprint to design a natural language interface for complex patient cohort creation. The real design challenge wasn't the AI. It was trust.
→Lune: 0→1 AI-First Design Sprint
Killed a couples-first concept on day two. Pivoted to professional planners and shipped brand, design system, and three-screen MVP.
→MapLab Cohort Builder
Rebuilt a legacy cohort builder around user confidence. Real-time preview replaced the 30-minute wait, turning AM-dependent users into self-serve analysts.

I make complex systems feel intuitive.
I design products that make complex data usable: analytics, dense dashboards, AI-generated output. The point is to help people see what matters and act on it without second-guessing.
For 4+ years at Komodo Health I worked on enterprise analytics, and more recently led its move toward AI-first workflows: cohort builders, natural-language flows, and a company-wide search-to-AI pivot. The through-line was always the same: how do expert tools stay approachable for mixed audiences?
I use AI throughout my workflow (Claude, Figma MCP, Cursor, and Claude Code) to move faster and prototype closer to real.
Background
How I got here
Industrial design first, then interaction design. Two degrees that shaped how I think about products, the physical object and the behavior around it.

Experience
Where I've worked
I started on physical healthcare hardware and moved toward platform tools and AI-first work. Research and cross-functional partners have been part of it the whole way.

Jan 2022 to Present · San Francisco, CA (remote)
- Led design for the AI-First Cohort Builder (natural language), cutting new-user activation from months to about a minute for key flows.
- Designed for mixed expertise: transparency, progressive disclosure, and graceful failure when AI-generated logic needs human judgment.
- Ran a "Search to AI Strategy" research thread that helped pivot the org toward AI-first workflows.
- Partnered with engineering and data science on how the AI layer abstracts complex data models for all users.
