System Thinking
System oriented AI Product Designer with 5 years shipping complex B2B SaaS and B2C products. I design configuration driven frameworks and modular systems. I prototype in AI (Next.js, TypeScript, React), and operate at the intersection of product strategy, system design, and polished UI. I've shipped in fast moving, resource constrained environments where ambiguity is the default.
