BASED IN LA ✦ DESIGNING @ LOANCRATE
I'm a creative grounded in systems, stories, and the world around me.
My work blends organized thinking with everyday inspiration — shaping experiences rooted in curiosity, empathy, and intention.
I’m driven by a constant pull to create, refine, and bring new ideas to life.
I’m a product builder, AI-focused strategist, and UX designer with a multidisciplinary background spanning design, development, systems architecture, and creative direction. Over the past six years, I’ve helped teams turn complex operational problems into clear, thoughtful digital experiences that balance user needs with business goals.
My work is grounded in systems thinking and a belief that technology can fundamentally expand how we solve problems. I use AI throughout the building process—from coding, product design, and systems architecture to content, strategy, operations, and automation—turning complex workflows into intuitive products and scalable systems.
At Loancrate, I design a loan origination system (LOS) in close partnership with mortgage-industry experts and loan-operations teams. Together, we’re creating first-of-their-kind tools and experiences that use AI with intention—making complex origination work feel clear, intuitive, and approachable while moving toward the long-term goal of automating the end-to-end loan origination process.
Outside of work, I’m always exploring. I produce music across genres, study interior design, tinker with mechanical keyboards, dive into specialty coffee, and spend time sim racing. I’m endlessly curious about systems—digital, spatial, or analog—and how thoughtful design can make them feel more intuitive, expressive, and alive.
Each chapter in my career has refined my eye, my intuition, and my approach.
From enterprise logistics to AI-powered product design, each chapter has deepened my foundation in systems thinking, strategy, and human-centered problem solving.

VESL
Founder & Designer
Coming soon
At VESL
Building a next-gen studio focused on delivering human-first experiences in an AI-forward era.
My work is powered by the skills I've gathered along the way.
I thrive on developing new capabilities, refining my craft, and consistently expanding my output as a designer and creative thinker.
I specialize in crafting UX strategies that align business goals with emerging technologies—particularly in AI-powered interfaces and intelligent systems. My approach blends systems thinking, human-centered design, and product intuition to drive outcomes that scale.
With deep experience building token-based, developer-friendly design systems, I engineer scalable UI platforms that unify brand expression, component logic, and code implementation. My systems accelerate velocity and reduce entropy across teams by integrating semantic structure.
From problem framing and research to component handoff and dev QA, I operate across the full UX spectrum. I move fluidly between strategic vision and hands-on design, using Figma, AI tools, and code-integrated workflows to deliver with both speed and quality.
Designing intelligent interfaces that adapt to user intent, leveraging machine learning models to create personalized and predictive experiences that evolve with user behavior.
Architecting robust component libraries and design tokens that ensure consistency, accessibility, and scalability across complex ecosystems, enabling rapid iteration.
Exploring new paradigms of interaction between humans and artificial intelligence, focusing on trust, transparency, and collaborative control mechanisms.
Crafting precise and effective prompts to unlock the full potential of generative AI models for design iteration, content creation, and problem solving.
Implementing advanced token strategies to automate styling updates and bridge the gap between design and development workflows, ensuring seamless synchronization.
Aligning design initiatives with core business objectives to drive growth, retention, and measurable impact, transforming user insights into strategic advantages.
The next chapter is already in motion.
I'm in the early stages of shaping VESL— a design and innovation studio built around UX, AI, and intentional craft. VESL exists to help teams imagine, design, and launch products that feel modern, intuitive, and unmistakably human.
