Excellent tools produce superior results

Hi, I'm Chad a product design leader with 15 years of experience. I specialize in crafting innovative solutions that harness the power of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to create scalable, modular, and accessible platforms.

I collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and stakeholders to translate complex concepts into actionable results; building B2B, B2C, & internal tools from FAANG to startups, delivering scalable AI experiences that distill AI/ML data discoveries into transformative solutions.

Design Methodology

solving the right issue, the right way

I follow the double diamond method of discovery, defining, developing and delivering aligning with UX Laws. This process is applied to all projects, even if abbreviated. I even use this method with hobbies.

I've found that by following this prescribed design process, it makes it much easier to keep projects in scope, delivered on time, and under budget. Using this methodology helps me turn my biggest weakness of getting lost in the details into a strength.

I have had the pleasure of working with Chad with projects at CDK. Chad and I collaborated on numerous design based projects for CDK’s automotive client base. Chad has this unique ability to optimize content which not only met campaign objects but exceeded it. He would re-create assets provided to us by our client partners into content which was fluid with user experience ease at its core. Chad did not shy away from a challenge and delivered on projects with tight deadlines. Always keeping up with industry trends, he uses up coming tech and its potential impact on existing business. Chad will not only add strength to any org he assists, but will push it to perform at its optimal capacity. He are a great asset for any organization.

I worked closely with Chad in the same creative format for two years, and afterward as a partner on various projects. Chad is an insightful designer, careful in their explorations of user-focused design, yet constantly exploring ways and means of representing information in new ways. He is an designer of excellent character whom I respect, and I recommend Chad whole-heartedly to any group seeking thoughtful yet explorative design work, willing to challenge convention but wise to user realities.
