About
Principal Product Designer
Product design leader with 15+ years across enterprise platforms, B2B SaaS, and 0→1 products. Currently directing AI-driven design at Banyan Software, shaping both the AI-assisted pipeline and the next-generation experiences it ships across a portfolio of 50+ vertical SaaS products. Recently led the design for re-platforming Intuit Mailchimp Transactional — a developer-focused email API — into the unified Mailchimp experience. Earlier, scaled TheoremOne's design team from 10 to 50+ and integrated a 200-person global design practice at Monks. Open to select fractional and advisory engagements where I can set strategy, ship complex products, and build the teams behind them.
Banyan Software · May 2026 – Present

Intuit Mailchimp · April 2026
Set the design vision for collapsing Mailchimp Transactional into the core Mailchimp product — a re-platform that unifies two separate apps into a single workspace for marketers and developers. Made the case for swapping an incremental UI refresh for a full platform integration, and shaped the roadmap that followed.
Monks Technology Services · May 2022 – May 2024
Following the acquisition of TheoremOne, co-led the integration of the TheoremOne and Zemoga design teams into a unified 200-person global practice. Stood up leveling, career paths, and hiring ops that closed the merger in under 9 months — faster than any other function. Ran a 100-person product design org, lifted delivery quality and client confidence, and represented design in enterprise sales that contributed to multimillion-dollar wins. Provided strategic IC leadership on engagements with Apple, GitHub, Wells Fargo, PNC, and BCG.
TheoremOne · Nov 2020 – May 2022
Scaled the design team from 20 to 50+ during the company's growth to 500 people and eventual acquisition. Put organizational structure, hiring operations, and performance frameworks in place, and lifted overall design maturity and delivery quality across client engagements.
TheoremOne · Jun 2017 – Nov 2020
Grew the design team from 10 to 20 and introduced lead roles to give the org structure for scale. Stood up design operations, career frameworks, and client engagement models — the foundation that let the team take on larger, more complex enterprise engagements.

A UX audit, a strategy sprint, or a design-system assessment. Fixed scope, fixed price, a written result.
For one-off reviews and questions that don't warrant a retainer. No minimum.
Equity considered alongside a reduced retainer for early-stage teams.
