Designing Enterprise SaaS that Scales
I work with product and engineering teams to bring clarity, alignment, and momentum to complex projects. Whether I’m the first designer on a team or mentoring a growing design org, I help teams make confident decisions, reduce risk, and build better outcomes through thoughtful design.
Atlas was created to drive innovation and build design culture. Our outside perspective brings fresh, unbiased curiosity.
Let's craft together.
Product Innovation + Design

When product teams move fast without design, nuance gets lost.
I work with product and engineering teams as a strategic design partner—often the first or only designer on a project. I help define what to build, why it matters, and how to make it work—for the business and the people using it. Whether I’m modernizing legacy tools or shaping something new, I bring clarity, reduce risk, and move work forward with focus.
I’m most often brought in to:
Modernize complex or outdated software
Design and validate innovative new products
Lead product strategy, validation, and UX design
Embed as a design lead within cross-functional teams
Align stakeholders around clear, confident decisions
Support design culture as teams grow

Leadership + Facilitation
Leadership + Facilitation
Design leadership shapes what gets built—by keeping teams aligned, risks visible, and users at the center.
I’m most often brought in to:
Mentor and support design leads
Provide fractional leadership during transitions or growth
Facilitate team strategy sessions or offsites
Align design, product, and engineering around shared goals
Strengthen culture to support sustainable outcomes

Connection to Clients
I speak to users, always
In all phases of a project, research and validation from users (existing or potential) is foundational to success. This is done expediently to ensure a balance of progress and directional confidence.
