AI as the default starting point, not a side experiment.
Outcome
  • Moved AI from novelty to the default starting point for research, exploration, and prototyping
  • Design shows up to kickoffs with evidence and working concepts, not opinions
  • Won the company hackathon with an AI-assisted, one-sitting feature: shipped
Problem
A Fortune 500 B2B platform whose design org was producing slower than the business moved, with research and exploration treated as luxuries instead of defaults.
My role
Lead UXR, UX, and UI design teams · Design org strategy, hiring, and mentorship · AI tooling transformation across the design workflow · Design system governance across a massive B2B platform
Key calls
  • Designers direct, edit, and validate instead of producing from scratch
  • Show up to kickoffs with evidence and working concepts

One sitting, one shipped feature

I recently won our company hackathon by researching, designing, and spec’ing a complete order grace-period feature (cancel within 30 minutes) in a single sitting. An AI-assisted workflow did the legwork while I made the calls. It shipped. That’s the leverage I build into my teams.

The team shift

Exploration got cheap. We test three or four directions in the time it used to take to polish one, and designers spend their time directing, editing, and validating instead of producing from scratch. That changed design’s seat at the table.

The full screens and process for this work are shared under NDA. If we’re talking, ask me for the password. Happy to walk you through everything.

That’s not it. Ask me for the current password.

Next case Kinjo. Kinjo
