Hello, I am

Thank you for visiting.

I'm a Senior Product Designer based in Portland, OR 🌲 with over 10 years of experience in various industries from enterprise to consumer.

My focus is user-centered design and ensuring the users’ needs are fulfilled. Design is a balance between an intuitive UX and beautiful, memorable design.

Data and user insights are gold. Utilizing data from Google Analytics and feedback from user research, ensures that I’m making the right Design/UX decisions.

The best experiences feel seamless and effortless to the end user through emotional and impactful UX/Design. While being empathetic to the users, it's also important to balance the goals/objectives of the business.

I enjoy collaborating with my team and keeping an open line of communication with all cross-functional teams to ensure efficiency and accuracy during all phases of a project.

It’s important to always remain positive and optimistic. New challenges excite me and I look forward to working with you!

Senior Product Designer utilizing Data Analytics & Research to shape my design decisions. A champion of Design Thinking principles and user empathy & advocacy to enhance the overall experience. Creating strong partnerships in the org and making a positive business impact.

“Chris is great. We worked together in creating better internal tools when he was at Facebook. Besides exploring new approaches to design & trying to humanize the UI, he lead the charge in creating a cohesive brand across all our products. Bonus points: he was instrumental in creating a "family-feel" team culture by setting up team-building activities for us always-on-the-go designers!”

- Kendall Sallay, Sr. Copywriter at iD Tech Camps

“Chris and I worked together at iD Tech for nearly six years! During that time, he brought the coolest, calmest, most collaborative energy to any project we worked on together--always positive, always thoughtful. I also deeply appreciated how he stayed so on top of current UI/UX trends and shared his knowledge with me. This was incredibly useful to me as a copywriter and helped me level up my own work. He's the best of the best at what he does and it was honestly a pleasure to get to be on his team at iD.”
