Director of User Experience
Based in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro
15 Years Experience
(About)
I’m a systems-minded UX/UI Director with 15 years of hands-on execution across the full stack of design deliverables. I help businesses build design infrastructure that performs, scales, and survives the handoff.
Audit and assessment for websites or digital products that underperform. I look at what’s actually happening: user behavior, technical performance, accessibility, interaction fundamentals. The output is a prioritized action plan scored by effort and impact. A decision-ready deliverable that tells you where to invest next, whether that’s with me or someone else.
Strategy, design, and development as a single integrated engagement. Discovery through launch, handled by the same person, so nothing gets lost in handoff. Everything ships with design system documentation: tokens, components, patterns. The goal is infrastructure your team can maintain and extend without calling me.
Embedded UX leadership on an ongoing basis. Roadmaps, conversion testing, analytics reviews, and dev-ready designs as needed. Director-level strategy paired with hands-on execution, without the ramp-up time of a generalist.
I take on 1-2 engagements at a time. If you’re thinking about working together, start a conversation and we’ll figure out what the right engagement looks like.
