Baja California, Winter 2023

I design systems that scale, simplify complexity, and push the boundaries of AI, search, and product.

From comics to crypto, social media to fintech, I’ve built and designed across industries, always looking for ways to turn ambitious ideas into intuitive experiences. I thrive where design meets engineering, where AI meets usability, and where big, ambiguous problems turn into elegant solutions.

At AlphaSense, I’m helping to shape the future of Search & AI, driving innovation in Generative AI, prototyping new search paradigms, and scaling design systems as the company grows from 150 to 1,500+ employees. I don’t just design interfaces, though I love craft — I design the way people find, interpret, and interact with knowledge.

Before AlphaSense, I was at Ex.io, where I helped build a crypto exchange from scratch in just eight months with a four-person engineering team. The company pivoted into Clear Street, now a major player in clearing services.

At Quote Catalog, I went from freelance designer to full-stack engineer building the API, creating a custom search engine, and developing a scalable DevOps system. This was my first deep dive into search technology, a field I now design rather than just engineer.

Prior to that, I designed social media management tools at Salesforce (Marketing Cloud), transitioned from UI to UX, and led mobile app design.

I got my start at Panelfly, where I first learned product design, and before that, at Pratt in Brooklyn, where I learned to code after being handed $500 to build a real estate website from scratch.

What drives me?

  • Prototyping next-generation AI-powered search experiences
  • Building systems that scale
  • Bridging the gap between engineering, design, and product strategy
  • Leveraging AI to make complex information more accessible
