ABOUT
To design great things for people, We must regularly walk in their shoes
I help businesses grow their product market share through product discovery, strategy workshops, and effective program management, and I am the former founder of UX agency in Boston, which I sold in 2014.
My journey has spanned a variety of disciplines including software engineering, product management, and UI/UX. And while my recent career path has involved directing multiple product teams, I do not hesitate to do hands-on design & research when needed.
