Professional summary

Senior Product Designer and design-oriented technologist specializing in the systems that connect design to engineering. I build design systems, AI-enabled workflows, and practical tooling that solve day-to-day friction, automate repetitive work, and get teams unstuck. My strength is combining product craft, enterprise design-system thinking, and technical fluency to turn complex design problems into scalable, usable infrastructure.

2023 - Present

Sling TV / DISH Network

Senior Product Designer

  • Lead an enterprise multi-brand design system supporting 13 teams across 5 platforms and 2 brands, aligning component architecture, product patterns, documentation, governance, and implementation guidance.
  • Architected and implemented the complete design-side workflow for delivering design-system code. Generated output moves from Figma into GitLab for pull-request review and validation before approved changes enter engineering's platform translation pipeline.
  • Planned, designed, and implemented an active seven-agent framework that runs semi-autonomous design-system workflows from intake through documentation, with human approval required before consequential changes are accepted.
  • Configure MCP connections that give specialized agents controlled access to design, documentation, work-management, and repository tools.
  • Lead Guide and Detail Page experiences across connected TV, web, tablet, and mobile, turning complex navigation, discovery, metadata, and content-decision problems into reusable product patterns.

Product Designer II

  • Designed cross-platform product experiences, reusable interaction patterns, design-system improvements, motion standards, and implementation-ready specifications across connected TV, web, tablet, and mobile.
  • Partnered with engineering to resolve platform constraints, improve component consistency, and translate product intent into reusable system behavior.

2020 - 2021

Sling TV / DISH Network

Product Designer I

  • Designed UI components, product flows, prototypes, and motion specifications supporting navigation, feedback, state change, and interface behavior.
  • Contributed to the early foundation of the Dark Matter Design System and reusable interaction standards.
