I'm a Senior Product Designer and UX Researcher with 14+ years shaping digital products end to end: problem framing, user research, interaction design, design systems, and production-ready user interfaces.
Prior experience, expertise, and research inform what to build. I spot where users are likely to get stuck, then design the system that fixes it and holds up at scale. I've done this across fintech, enterprise, and healthtech, at companies like Charles Schwab, Dell, and Bazaarvoice. My typography and layout background sharpens how I handle hierarchy, structure, color usage, and detail.
Open to senior product design, user experience, and research roles. Contact me at rustyxviii@gmail.com.
