I'm a Senior UX Designer working on internal recruiting software at Korn Ferry. My earlier work includes agency UX leadership, website design and development, and insurance-company website rebrands. I use research and prototypes to work through design decisions, then stay involved through implementation review.
Timeline
Korn Ferry · Part-time, fractional
I designed an internal recruiting workflow whose first design version earned stakeholder approval and is now in use. I continue the redesign across profile and search workflows. I build connected Figma prototypes, create and update shared components, and review designs and implementation with product managers and engineers.

Earlier role: Senior Web Designer (Full Stack) - UX/UI Designer.
I led UX and web design while staying hands-on in research, design and front-end development. I guided client feedback, design reviews and launch QA. I ran A/B tests by creating two versions of pages and comparing their performance, and used analytics and heatmaps to guide website changes.
Baldwin Risk Partners
I built and rebranded websites for insurance companies acquired by Baldwin Risk Partners. I worked on website pages and routes to contact forms so visitors could inquire about services.
Power of the Web
I designed and built client websites, from page structure and interface design through front-end implementation.

Figma, wireframes, UX writing, prototypes, interaction states, responsive design, and accessibility.
Components, libraries, documentation, design reviews, engineering handoff, build QA, and mentoring.
HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WordPress/PHP, API-connected content and debugging.
I use Codex to build apps and working interfaces, and AI tools to create Figma prototypes more quickly. I review the resulting design and implementation.
I use stakeholder context, user research, workflow mapping, and analytics to define the problem and understand the technical constraints.
I work through flows and wireframes, then define reusable components, interaction states, responsive rules, and documentation.
I build and debug websites with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WordPress/PHP and APIs. I check responsive behavior and accessibility. When engineering owns the build, I stay involved through implementation review.
