Selected Work
Designing for the people behind the data.
A featured case study, plus selected projects from a decade designing complex, data-dense software — deepest in biotech and diagnostics, for the experts who depend on it.
Featured case study
NULISA Analysis Software — UX audit & redesign
Alamar Biosciences · A heuristic UX audit and end-to-end redesign of an R/Shiny proteomics platform — grounded in Nielsen's heuristics and implemented directly in code.

Thermo Fisher · qPCR/GTS
Diomni Enterprise Software
Clinical platform designed and delivered MVP-to-end-to-end in three months — called a "crowning achievement" internally. Set a new design standard supporting multiple assays and instruments with far less development effort.

Thermo Fisher · qPCR commerce
TaqMan Assay Search Wizard
Led the most extensive UX research effort in the org's history to overhaul the TaqMan assay-ordering experience — redesigning the e-commerce search and, on the strength of what research revealed, launching a new Assay Search Wizard to help customers find the right assay. Presented the competitive gap to leadership and secured ~$1M in phase-one funding within a week.
Thermo Fisher · Dx instrument
QuantStudio 7 Pro DX
Designed the first-ever single-mode Dx system with ADF capability built in — including a new on-instrument post-run experience, amp curve view, and one-system Dx reporting. Validated through internal and external user testing.
Thermo Fisher · NGS
AmpliSeq.com
Redesigned the assay design and purchasing experience to cut UX confusion and help customers make better buying decisions — a key contribution to driving long-desired AmpliSeq design sales.
Thermo Fisher · org-wide
GSD Design System
Built an embedded design team from the ground up and stood up a division-wide design system — including the org's full migration from Sketch to Figma — to accelerate and standardize product design across business units.

Engineering + strategy + leadership
The hybrid, at work.
Design is my craft — but a decade of engineering and leadership means I can step into adjacent work when a team needs it. A few examples of the range I bring beyond the pixels.
Software strategy
Platform technical strategy & roadmap
Partnered with senior R&D leadership to facilitate and drive the division's software technical strategy — shaping the deck, the visuals, and the messaging, and aligning technical teams around a coherent vision and roadmap.
Org enablement
Aurora Design System adoption
Led the evaluation of a new enterprise design system, built the proposal, and presented to leadership — securing division-wide approval and coordinating the rollout and training across teams.
Process leadership
Agile & requirements coaching
Coached product and engineering teams across the division on agile practices and requirements elicitation — streamlining how teams scoped, planned, and shipped software together.
Engineering roots
Architecture & delivery leadership
A decade as a software engineer and technical architect — leading enterprise modernization and B2B platform builds for clients from the U.S. Mint to GlobalFoundries. The foundation that lets me design things that are actually buildable.
