Design that holds up when the company scales

Design isn't a deliverable. It's a decision-making framework.

How I Lead Design

My tried-and-true
design process

(01)

Discovery

Align on business context, user needs, and organizational constraints before touching a single pixel.

(02)

Frame

Define the problem worth solving, not just the feature requested. This is where strategy separates good design from great design.

(03)

Structure

Map information architecture, user flows, and cross-functional dependencies to create a foundation the whole team can build on.

(04)

Design

Translate structure into high-fidelity solutions with clear rationale for every decision, not just aesthetic choices.

(05)

Align

Pressure-test designs with engineering, product, and stakeholders before development begins. Buy-in is a design deliverable.

(06)

Measure

Define what success looks like before launch, and close the loop after. Design doesn't end at handoff.
