CAREER EXPERIENCE

The experience
I bring to the work.

My career spans enterprise workflow platforms, cloud software, digital product direction, and visual and interaction design.

2021–Present

Asteron Enterprise Platforms

VP, Product Creative & Experience Design

  • Set visual direction across enterprise workflow products, covering typography, color, composition, motion, data visualization, and interaction hierarchy.
  • Translated that direction into reference experiences, reusable patterns, and practical guidance for product teams.
  • Brought Product, Engineering, Brand, Research, Content, and Accessibility perspectives into critique and AI-assisted creative practice.
  • Results: improved reuse of shared visual patterns by 40%, reduced duplicated design exploration by 28%, and increased adoption of AI-supported creative workflows to 70% within pilot groups.
2017–2021

Northstar Cloud Software

Director, Product Design & Visual Systems

  • Led visual, interaction, and systems design for complex enterprise SaaS workflows.
  • Partnered with Product and Engineering from discovery and prototyping through implementation, release, and iteration.

RESULTS IN THE WORK

What my decisions
make possible.

These are outcomes you can inspect in the current projects. Each case explains my contribution, the trade-off, and the evidence available.

CURRENT BODY OF WORK

Direction you can inspect.

Product workflows

Asteron explores requests and approval handoffs. Northstar connects service visibility, deployment context, and reviewed actions.

Visual systems

Booked in 48 examines distinct visual expressions with consistent component behavior. The Systems playground makes theme, density, and state visible.

AI-assisted practice

I use references, generated options, and implementation feedback to guide the work. The portfolio identifies working behavior, review findings, and what would need further validation.

MY CONTRIBUTION

The direction I own.

My role is to set a clear direction, connect it to the user’s task, and guide the details that make an experience coherent. The case studies show the decisions, working states, and trade-offs behind the resulting interfaces.

Creative direction and feedback are mine. Recent demonstrations use AI-assisted implementation and visual exploration. Their project labels distinguish the current examples from career history, and the AI process page explains how I review and refine the work.

EDUCATION

Broadcast and mass communications.

Bachelor’s degree — Broadcast Communications / Mass Communications.
Sam Houston State University.
