Available to hire
I am a results-driven design leader with 15+ years optimizing patient and healthcare provider experiences in regulated environments. I leverage data analytics and user research to build seamless digital solutions—from patient portals to AI-powered tools—that drive adoption, satisfaction, and health outcomes across orthopedics, physical therapy, and sports medicine.
Collaborating with clinicians, staff, and patients, I translate complex requirements into accessible, evidence-based designs and scalable platforms. I enjoy leading cross-functional teams, establishing design systems, and measuring impact through velocity, NPS, and outcomes.
