I make the right move legible when the wrong one costs millions
I have 15 years’ experience building data visualization systems for data-dense industrial and enterprise operations. I've authored the Figma library and the React theme for design systems, written the production React for components that needed customization, and merged approved pull requests so engineers could ship without waiting on me.
I built a Python dashboard that surfaced an estimated $7.5M in tariff exposure in an afternoon. When a front end moved from React to Python Dash, I rebuilt the component library and had the first product matching in two days.

How I uncovered $58.5M in projected savings across hundreds of furnaces
How do you optimize hundreds of furnaces, when you’re not sure how each is performing?
How I found $7.5M in potential tariff costs in an afternoon
When tariffs were changing weekly, I built a Dash visualization that caught the biggest risk.
How I transformed an AI video search tool into a pitchable vision
The tool could save police departments hundreds of hours. They couldn’t see it with the current design.
How I created a design system to save $2.8M, from components to code
Five product teams. Nine products. One library. The stack changed halfway through.
