Hi, I’m Mike.

I’m a UX Designer / Problem Solver.

Hi there, I’m Mike, a Senior User Experience Designer. I’m originally from NYC but have made California my home (I still crave my NY pizza but that’s a tradeoff). Working in finance in my past life, I have found my true calling as a UX designer solving problems through design and finding simple solutions to complex issues.

Let’s create some meaningful experiences for your users together.

Understanding Users 🧑‍💻

Effective user experience starts with a good understanding of your users. We not only want to know who they are, but understand their motivations, mentality, and behaviors as they use your product.

Simple Solutions 🤔

Good design should be invisible. Let your users have positive experiences without the need for a manual. Let’s find simple solutions for your product’s most complex problems.

Collaboration 🤝

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” Working together and collaborating allows great ideas to flourish and solutions come to fruition. To make a good product, teamwork makes the dream work.

Testing, Testing… 📊

Test potential solutions and validate assumptions early on to make sure the right stuff is being built for our users. Building a strong foundation in the beginning means less rework and resource drain later on.

Keep Learning 🎓

Every project and problem to solve is different. There is so much to learn about your users, the business, and potential solutions. Keep uncovering and exploring until you get to that eureka moment.

Stay Humble 🙏

Be an awesome human being and lift up others around you. There’s always something new to learn. Treat others with respect and be excellent to one another.
