AI made building easier. It didn’t make knowing what to build easier.

I hold a high bar for craft, stay close to research, and build the systems, not just the screens, that make good design hold up as a product scales.

My focus is shaping product direction across B2B, B2C, and enterprise. I partner with product and engineering to identify the problem worth solving before anyone opens Figma.

What’s shaping my thinking

When AI acts on a user's behalf, who is responsible for what it does?

Clark and Kindred frame it well in Sentient Design: the shift isn't from bad interfaces to better ones. It's from interfaces that respond to commands to systems that understand intent. That's a different design problem entirely, and most teams aren't treating it that way yet.
