Methodology
Over time, I’ve worked to understand, refine, and co-create a product design process that strikes a balance between structure and flexibility.
This framework enables teams to transition from early alignment to confident execution, with a strong emphasis on research, iteration, and collaboration at every stage.
The goal is always the same: build the right thing, for the right reasons and make it well.

Measuring Experiences
Effective solutions hinge on simultaneously providing unique value to users while contributing to your business's bottom line. To tackle this challenge, you need a deep understanding of business drivers, relevant data sets, and how people interact within the problem space. Once you have your frame, you can establish the metrics you want to impact and set up a way to continuously measure against these KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). These metrics give you the space to work within to craft your solution. Within this defined solution space, you do targeted research, hypothesize, test, and refine your solution using various tactics, including HCD, Lean, Design Thinking, and Agile.
Measuring experiences within an organization involves three key elements: quantitative analytics, qualitative usability assessments, and business value. Quantitative analytics offer objective metrics on user interactions, such as click-through rates and conversion rates, providing a data-driven view of user behavior. Qualitative assessments gather user feedback through surveys and usability testing, offering insights into satisfaction and pain points. Business value is measured by aligning user experience with organizational goals and its impact on metrics like revenue growth and customer retention. Together, these elements provide a holistic view of product performance, guiding decisions to enhance user satisfaction and achieve business objectives.
