or jump to my CreditWise/Capital One, Tablet Hotels, or Charity walking app case studies.
At Capital One, I helped design and launch Simulator and Credit Goals, two main features for the CreditWise app, along with several credit line management products for their main banking app. I worked closely with technology, product, and business teams to uncover customer and business needs, then translated those insights into intuitive, engaging design solutions. My role involved applying human-centered design methods, discovery, research, ideation, and user testing, to advocate for users and enhance the product experience. I also supported design led workshops to build cross functional alignment and proactively recommended product improvements grounded in research and UX best practices.

At Mastercard, I created high fidelity interactive demos for the North American Click to Pay team. The demos communicated vision and functionality to both executive leadership and external clients. They also played a key role in aligning stakeholders and guiding product development.
I created production-ready designs that were successfully implemented, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams while navigating constraints around branding, security, and technical limitations. I also supported usability testing and concept validation to ensure the final solutions were intuitive, accessible, and aligned with user needs.
Portfolio work available upon request.
When SwiftUI was announced, I wanted to dive in and learn it hands-on. What better way to do that than by building something real? That’s how YA$T (Yet Another Spending Tracker) was born—a simple, intuitive app focused on quick expense entry, customizable categories, and helpful visual insights through graphs.
It’s available on the App Store if you’d like to see some of my UX and design sensibilities in action. Keep in mind, some of those sensibilities were limited by my coding skills.
