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
5 case studies · 2023 to 2026
QuintAce Communities
Player-run communities for a poker app. I generated six layouts with AI, reworked the one we chose, and finished it in our design system.
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.
Earlier work at Zynga
2019 to 2022
Hand Clarity
Players thought they'd won hands they lost, and called the game rigged. I redesigned how the table shows who won and why.
Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells
I managed a designer and 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 partner closely with product managers to balance ambitious user experiences with realistic timelines and scope.
- I design for what users need and what engineering can build.
- I focus on building clarity and buy-in when projects get complex or teams pull in different directions.
I work in Figma and Unity, and use Claude to reach a testable prototype sooner.
