I build tools people wanna use.
Most recently as Senior Product Designer at Circuit.ai, where I handled AI product design end to end: from user story to working product. Component libraries, interactive demos, AI driven design-to-code-to-design tools to perfect the full product experience. Before that I was Head of Design at SmartAC.com, and before that I founded, ran, and sold Rocksauce Studios after twelve years leading sales, product & design.
I've designed & built solutions for Bechtel, SLB, IBM, Disney, Don't Mess with Texas, and app-store darlings like Dosh. I focus on building strong foundations, systems, and processes, helping teams design a full product experience.

Working with Q
Q is action-orientated and proactive. Q knows how to think big and drive for creative solutions, but knows how to get things done. Q’s an incredible team player, building relationships across design, product and engineering.
Joaquin DespontinLead Experience DesignerEvery handoff from Q came with the why. Not just the screens, but the reasons, the rejected options, and what we’d test first. It made the build faster and the arguments shorter.
Alex RiveraEngineering LeadSmartACQ ran the website study like a scientist and pitched the winner like a founder.
Priya NatarajanVP MarketingSmartACI’ve worked with a lot of design leads. Q is the one who actually sits with the technician, watches them fumble the app, and comes back with the fix already prototyped. That’s rare, and it changed what the rest of us expected from design.
Marcus BellProduct ManagerField ServicesFast, opinionated, and right more often than not. When Q was wrong, Q said so first.
Dana WhitfieldCEOHomLuvQ built the design system we still ship on, then taught the team to run it without a designer in the room. The best leadership is the kind that makes itself unnecessary.
