Nov 2024 - Nov 2025
As the founding UX designer for Fidelity’s internal trading platforms COE, I led the design of high‑performance tools that enabled analysts and portfolio managers to make real‑time financial decisions. I transformed complex, data‑dense workflows into intuitive, scalable interfaces that emphasized speed, clarity, and compliance, while guiding the evolution of the design system from Google Material to PrimeNG. I established design processes, documentation, and development practices that supported system growth, refactored components to maintain usability and consistency, and deepened my expertise in data‑dense dashboard design prioritizing hierarchy, cognitive load management, and accessible, semantic color usage. This work reduced UI redundancy, improved accessibility, strengthened stakeholder alignment, and reinforced my enterprise UX strategy, systems thinking, and collaborative design leadership.

Jul 2023 - Dec 2024
As Lead UX/UI Designer for Chentronics, I led the creation of their first mobile interface for industrial safety systems, translating technician workflows into responsive, real‑time control experiences across .NET MAUI and Figma. I designed a cross‑device UI that mirrored desktop functionality while optimizing for speed, clarity, and reliability in high‑pressure environments, aligning mobile interactions with existing workflows to reduce training overhead and support seamless task execution. I applied atomic design principles to scale components across platforms, refined semantic color usage for industrial contexts, and balanced data density with interaction speed to support technician decision‑making. Through Agile sprint leadership, stakeholder reviews, and design‑system expansion, I strengthened cross‑functional alignment and deepened my expertise in mobile‑first enterprise UX and safety‑critical workflow design.
