Product designer + design engineer, 14+ years, looking for an IC (player-coach) design engineer role. I'm happiest building 0 to infinity.

I've been the first or an early designer at companies that went on to exit:

- GoodRx (IPO 2020): first full-time designer on Iodine. Coupon conversion 2% to 5%, a Webby-winning product, data viz cited in the NYT.

- Clover Health (public via SPAC): second designer, pre-Series A. Designed and shipped the nurse home-visit app; nurses reported 1-2 hours of chart prep gone each day.

- Also Amazon, TaskRabbit (acq. by IKEA), doc.ai (acq. by Sharecare).

The last 5 years I've been hands-on in code. The last 2-3 I co-founded:

- y30, voice AI for older adults and their caregivers. I owned product, design, and engineering: the voice experience, games, caregiver tools, and the testing system.

- PlaySesh, a collaborative tabletop whiteboard in Discord. Peaked at 1,043 monthly active users (January 2026).
