View case study →I turn ambiguous, high-stakes problems into a clear direction. I dig into how a product needs to work, align stakeholders on where it’s headed, and give the whole team a plan they can move on with confidence.
I design for scale, distilling sprawling systems into experiences that feel simple on every platform. I map every scenario up front, not just the happy path, so edge cases and error states are handled before they reach users.
I fold AI into every stage of my process to explore more directions and reach polished, production-ready work sooner. The tools speed things up; the decisions, judgment, and craft stay mine.
“Chris is one of the most trusted and capable designers I’ve had the opportunity to work with. He brings strong judgment, deep product thinking, and a consistently high bar for craft, especially when the work is complex, ambiguous, or moving quickly.”
“Chris has an exceptional ability to ramp up quickly, develop a deep understanding of complex systems, and translate that complexity into thoughtful, intuitive user experiences. He consistently balanced customer needs with the realities of large-scale platform architecture spanning hundreds of AWS services.”
“What stood out immediately was how well Chris understood the technical side. His designs always accounted for what our component library could actually do, which meant almost no back-and-forth translating a design into something buildable. When requirements shifted, he’d turn around new designs fast, and they were detailed enough that I could start building right away.”
“Chris sets the gold standard for product designers. I’ve had the rare privilege of having him on my team twice (first at T. Rowe Price, then again at Amazon), and both times he elevated the entire team. He’s an exceptional systems thinker, deeply customer-obsessed, and one of the best cross-functional collaborators I’ve worked with.”
