Product Designer

I came to design from front-end development, wanting to shape the why instead of executing the how. Now I design AI tools for hardware teams while shipping my own features and improvements via software.

Work Experience

Product Designer

Enzzo | Aug 2024 - Present | Seattle, WA

Design how people work with AI on a platform used by enterprise hardware teams including Resideo, Fluke, Tektronix, Arlo, Honda, and Ralliant.

  • Built the interaction patterns the platform runs on, including the Quick Actions panel and the conversational question model that show users what to do next in context.
  • Designed Enzzo Monitor, a new surface for competitive and market tracking, and handed engineering a spec complete enough to ship an MVP in a week.
  • Ship design fixes straight to the codebase with AI coding tools when the built UI drifts from spec.
  • Mapped what every AI action should produce, 100+ across six workspace areas, into one spec engineering builds against.

User Experience Designer

Thayna Santana Studio | Sep 2020 - Oct 2024 | Seattle, WA

Partnered with startups and established industries, delivering tailored product solutions from research through front-end build.

  • Led end-to-end development for 5+ web and mobile projects, covering user flows, wireframes, prototypes, high fidelity mockups, and front-end work.
  • Boosted engagement by 42% through strategic, user-friendly interface design.
  • Applied user-centered design to develop profiles, analyze tasks, and craft scenarios, resulting in 20% higher user satisfaction and 10% increased conversion.

Business Integration Analyst | User Experience Engineer

Accenture | Jan 2020 - Jul 2020 | Houston, TX

Enhanced the SAP system for a renewable energy initiative, introducing new functionality that drove a 35% increase in internal process efficiency.

  • Improved a clean energy client's operational efficiency by 35% through user-friendly tech solutions.
  • Increased product satisfaction by 20% through modern software applications that automated manual tasks.
  • Devised strategy with a 5+ stakeholder team to turn business needs into shipped products.

Selected Work

Design System and UX Writing System

Enzzo | 2025 - 2026

  • Rebuilt the token structure so the design system survives contact with AI tools that generate and modify components.
  • Wrote the product's UX writing standards as a spec the team actually uses, covering voice, error states, empty states, and confirmations across every surface.

Enterprise Onboarding Redesign

Enzzo | 2026

  • Rebuilt the product's first-run experience as a 5-step conversational flow, shipped as two separate paths because clients arriving with mature process and clients arriving without it don't need the same thing.
