Head of Product & Design at Sporttrade Inc
I’m a product and design leader who blends business strategy, systems thinking, UX research, and design craft to create products that are intuitive, impactful, and built to scale.
Today, I’m the Head of Product & Design at Sporttrade—having joined as the founding designer and built the design organization from the ground up. In close partnership with Engineering and executive leadership, I shape product strategy, establish design systems, build high-performing teams, and drive the user experience for the first regulated sports betting exchange in the U.S.
Over the past 20 years, I’ve helped startups and enterprise organizations solve complex problems across fintech, telecom, enterprise SaaS, fitness, travel, and insurance. My background includes design leadership roles at Comcast, Think Company, Wodify, Citigroup, and Icelandair.
Outside of work, I’m a firefighter, fitness enthusiast, bourbon appreciator, and motorcycle rider. I’m also an ADPList mentor, passionate about helping designers become stronger product thinkers, strategic partners, and effective leaders.
