Selective Modules Release
Tailoring material to one student took about 15 clicks per item, so instructors avoided it. I made whole modules assignable.
I make complex workflows clear, quick to use and practical to build.
Senior product designer in the San Francisco Bay Area. More than ten years across B2B SaaS, edtech and games, including Canvas LMS, Zynga Poker and QuintAce.

Selected work
6 case studies · 2019 to 2026
QuintAce Communities
Player-run communities for a poker app, and the team's first feature with an AI-generated PRD and first layouts.
Church Offering Entry
A church paid $200 a month for slow offering software. I built a replacement and redesigned entry as one typed line per gift.
Course Pacing Redesign
Course Pacing set one pace for a whole course, and about 1% of courses used it. I redesigned it for sections and individual students.
Bulk Publish
Instructors published 80 to 120 items one click at a time. An engineer and I fixed it in a hackathon week.
Hand Clarity
Players thought they'd won hands they lost, and called the game rigged. I redesigned how the table shows the winner.

Supporting work · 2020 to 2022
Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells
I led experience design on a match-3 game with about 400k daily players.
Zynga Poker
Leagues, Challenges, the VIP Center and the store, during the move from native iOS to Unity.
About
San Francisco Bay Area
I design products with complicated rules behind simple screens, from course tools on Canvas LMS to live games at Zynga and QuintAce.
- I push product managers for the best experience the time and scope allow.
- I design within real engineering constraints.
- I get teams aligned, including when it's hard.
I work in Figma and Unity, and use Claude to reach a testable prototype sooner.
