I’m a senior product designer with hands-on design engineering skills. Today, I’m redesigning Korn Ferry’s internal recruitment software and building Where The Wild Beasts Roam, a wildlife-planning product. I use research to shape the experience and carry those decisions into the working interface.
“Packy absolutely crushed it.”
At Korn Ferry, I’m making complex recruitment decisions clearer inside an established enterprise product. With Where The Wild Beasts Roam, I designed and built the wildlife-planning product from the first idea through launch and ongoing improvement.
Search, profile details, and actions were competing for attention. I reorganized the workflow around a clearer starting choice, connected selection states, and reusable Figma components, working with product and engineering through review and handoff.
I took Where The Wild Beasts Roam from an idea to a live paid product, designing the planner, website, checkout, member access, saved route PDFs, and supporting field guides. I continue to test the working product, watch how people use it, and improve the experience.
How I work
Then I map the journey, design the interface, and work through the build and launch checks. Research guides the first version. Testing, analytics, and feedback guide what changes after release.
I use research, analytics, and the team’s context to understand what people are trying to do, where they get stuck, and what the business needs. Then we define the constraints and what success would look like.
I map the journey, compare design directions, and test assumptions with flows and prototypes. This is where I work through what someone needs to see, choose, or understand before the team commits to a build.
I design the interface, interaction states, reusable components, responsive behavior, and accessibility. My front-end experience helps me work through technical constraints and carry those decisions into code. I build the interface directly or work with engineering to make sure the product behaves as intended.
I use real behavior, feedback, and analytics to see where people hesitate or miss a step. That evidence helps me decide what to change next and what to review again.
More than 15 years across design, front-end development, content, and team leadership shape how I approach product design. I connect what people need with what a team can build, launch, and maintain.
That attention carries into product design. I look at what people notice, what they miss, and what they trust. I also consider the team that has to maintain the product after launch.
