I’m a Senior UX Product Designer with 18 years of experience designing digital consumer products for companies including Everyday Health, Audible, and Amazon.

I enjoy working with multidisciplinary teams. I develop the vision (based on business requirements), conduct research, brainstorming, strategy, and product experiences for both web and touch-optimized surfaces. I also mentor, lead sprint planning, sprint demos, etc.

My strengths include organization, leadership, planning, and execution. I create experiences that balance the needs of the customer with the needs of the business.

I am currently the Senior UX Designer for Amazon. In this role, I create Livestream experiences that help customers make more informed buying decisions and help creators livestream on Amazon. I present the UX direction to key business stakeholders and leadership regularly.

My experience includes:

  • Senior UX Designer for Amazon

  • Senior UX Designer for Audible on Amazon

  • Lead UX Designer for International Audible on Amazon

  • UX Designer for the Audible shopping experience including mobile redesign

  • Senior UX Designer for Everyday Health’s platform team, web and apps

  • Designer for The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, including web redesign

I was born on a chicken farm in Western PA. When I was 4 my family moved to West Palm Beach Florida, where I spent my middle and high school years trying to surf and studying as an art student at Alexander W. Dreyfoos School of the arts. In college, I majored in Industrial Design at Carnegie Mellon University and then I went on to receive a Masters in Design from the School of Visual Arts.

Currently, I live in South Orange, NJ right outside of NYC. In my free-time, I enjoy working out and running. I also enjoy painting, drawing, and other visual arts. I’m currently open to new opportunities to work with energetic, smart, and talented people.
