Selected Work

3D Whiteboard
Unlocking streamlined collaboration in manufacturing
Engineering decisions have a history of being made in silos. I worked as design lead on a 0 to 1 product that would allow teams to share decisions and areas of interest with their colleagues.

Metrology Asset Manager
Redesigning an IoT dashboard for simpler asset management
Metrology Asset Manager helps quality teams get a better understanding of their operations. Through a migration to Hexagon's Nexus platform, I led a major revamp of a legacy product to better address user needs and goals.

Brightlayer Industrial
Helping maintenance teams make smarter asset management decisions
Identifying partial discharge is considered a dark art in the world of industrial maintenance. I worked on a cross-functional team of electrical engineers, data scientists, and product managers to de-mystify diagnosing a critical event on industrial assets.

Next-Gen SPC Tools for Quality Teams
Bringing enterprise-grade SPC tools to small quality teams through intuitive design
Statistical Process Control tools have a history of being robust and overwhelming for most companies to take advantage of. I led discovery and created an early vision for how these tools can be simplified for small-to-medium sized businesses.
