I'm a Toronto-based senior product designer with a decade in Web3, designing fintech products where regulation, complexity, and usability meet.

About

I'm a Senior Product Designer with over a decade of experience building digital products across fintech, blockchain, and Web3. But I took an unusual path to get here.

Before I ever opened a design tool, I studied finance and law — and spent time working in traditional industries where I learned how complex systems, regulations, and institutions actually function. That background means I can sit in a room with engineers, lawyers, and product leads and speak everyone's language.

About

My crypto journey started in 2016 when I was invited to join a Web3 project during the ICO era. That moment redirected my career toward emerging technology, and I haven't looked back. Since then, I've designed products ranging from early-stage startups finding product-market fit to enterprise platforms that demand precision at scale.

At Polymath / Polymesh, I led product design for a regulated tokenization platform — one of the first of its kind. I translated deeply technical systems sitting at the intersection of blockchain mechanics, regulatory compliance, and user experience into products that people could actually understand and use.

I led cross-functional teams through the full lifecycle: issuing, managing, and trading tokenized real-world assets.

Across my career, I've built design systems from scratch, owned end-to-end product design, and partnered with product and engineering leadership to align design decisions with business outcomes. I care about raising the bar for the teams I work with, not just the pixels I ship.

My work spans mobile apps, web platforms, and blockchain-based products.

I'm energized by where Web3, fintech, and AI are heading — and by the challenge of building products that drive real-world adoption in spaces that matter.

Long term, I want to help define what the next generation of financial products looks and feels like.
