Lead Product Designer Oct 2023 – Aug 2026
Sole designer for Patient Conversations, a 0-to-1 AI-driven, two-way texting-first patient communication tool.
- Shaped product vision and MVP scope from the ground up, working closely with product and engineering to balance user needs against technical constraints
- Led research through user interviews, surveys, onsite visits, and user group calls, using Marvin and Claude Code to document and synthesize findings, translating insights into product direction throughout development
- Prototyped rapidly with Claude, Codex, and Figma Make to demo possible conversation flows internally and with stakeholders, accelerating alignment before engineering investment
- Built a custom Claude skill that interviews me against a design and generates the design spec (tokens, styling, edge cases, behavior), used directly by engineers in spec-driven development; cut spec-writing time in half
- Supported go-to-market efforts as the product moved toward general availability
Senior Product Designer Jan 2022 – Oct 2023
- Redesigned the patient-facing self-check-in experience within athenaOne, replacing paper intake forms with a digital workflow spanning insurance capture and health questionnaires
- Led discovery and design for Forms on Demand, a staff-facing workflow enabling practice staff to send forms to patients ad hoc
- Established cohesive interaction patterns and WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility compliance across the flow; built and maintained a component library for self-check-in
- Stepped in to lead the Patient Experience Design System in the absence of a dedicated owner, updating core components and establishing a contribution process for other designers
