Mobile + Fintech


I have an extensive background in mobile products, with significant experience in finance. I enjoy the challenge of mixing research, UX, UI, and content strategy to turn complex high-stakes flows into intuitive and trustworthy experiences.




FUNCTIONAL BRAND
Data-heavy interfaces, like those found in financial products, rarely embody the unique brand qualities that differentiate those products in the market.

As pattern libraries and component frameworks become ubiquitous, these products need digitally-native systems that can deliver a interactive experience that lives up to the promise of the brand.

I’ve designed digital experiences for payments, wallets, banking, trading, and asset management – balancing UX best-practices and UI innovation with industry regulations and customer expectations.



REDUCE COMPLEXITY + INSPIRE CONFIDENCE

With a focus on everything from clear copywriting, to accessibility, to server performance, I use design to reduce noise and inspire confidence for high-stakes features and flows.

FULL-STACK DESIGN
I make sense of complex products using a proven toolbox of service design methods: analyzing the data, generating insights, and prioritize where team energy is best spent iterating:
 
Product Strategy: 
Stakeholder workshops
Content strategy
Competitive audits
Feature planning/prioritization

UX & Design: Customer archetypes/interviews
Information architecture
User/Service journeys
Low and High-fidelity Mockups
User testing

Front-end & Delivery: Technical audits
Prototyping
HTML/CSS mockups
Component library management




CROSS-FUNCTIONAL I involve and align teams early and often to help realize design as a service within the org, not only a deliverable to developers.

DIGITAL WALLETS
From smartphones and NFC to smart contracts and NFTs – phones continue to be the primary context for reviewing, moving, and storing money. I’ve designed payment and wallet interfaces for products from Google, American Express, Barclays, Citi, and E-Trade.

By optimizing existing designs with security, legibility, and performance in mind, I simplify complex flows into experiences that feel native and safe.
         






MOBILE FIRSTS
In 2011, I led the visual design for one of the first tap-to-pay mobile wallets. Working closely with product leads from Google, this app was one of the first utilize Google’s newly standardized UI patterns, shortly before the Material design language was introduced in the following release of Android.
