A bit about me
I'm a senior product designer at Rocket Mortgage, where I solve complex problems and advocate for our broker partners. Over the past five years at Rocket, I've led design on products that reduced thousands of support tickets, unlocked hundreds of millions in loan volume, and gave brokers more control over their workflows - working closely with product, researh, engineering, and compliance teams to ship complex features at scale.
Before Rocket, I spent five years at Decypher Corporation designing custom software for clients like Allstate and AAA.
When I'm not designing, I'm probably chasing around my toddler, going to Taco Bell, or redesigning my portfolio from scratch.
Good design gets out of the way
The best interfaces are the ones users don't think about. Whether designing for professionals navigating complex workflows or everyday users making important financial decisions, the goal is the same: clarity over cleverness, efficiency over aesthetics, and outcomes over outputs.
AI has made it easier than ever to generate ideas, artifacts, and interfaces. But that force multiplier amplifies whatever you bring to it. Speed without judgment just gets you to the wrong answer faster. The designers who thrive in this new landscape aren't the ones who generate the most — they're the ones who curate with purpose. Taste, empathy, and user knowledge are what separate signal from noise. Curation is the new craft.
