About

I am a strategic UX Lead with over 13 years of experience architecting user-centered solutions across hospitality, fintech, and enterprise SaaS. I currently lead cross-functional design teams in the hospitality technology sector, focusing on the development of integrated access management and operational systems.

Current Focus

My current work centers on building AI-native design systems and developing algorithmic UX processes. This involves creating programmable design logic, intelligent components, and scalable frameworks that support cross-platform product ecosystems.

Core Expertise

UX Architecture & Systems Thinking

I treat UX architecture as a systems discipline, merging interface design, technical constraints, and user mental models into structured, scalable design frameworks.

AI-Based Design Systems

I design modular, logic-driven design systems powered by AI tooling and semantic rule sets, enabling intelligent pattern reuse, automated variant generation, and system-wide coherence.

Enterprise UX Strategy

I align design, product, and engineering around structured processes and shared vision, particularly in complex environments where integration, reliability, and scale are critical.

Hospitality Technology

Extensive domain experience designing for secure access, operational workflows, and critical user journeys in high-uptime environments.
