I built and shipped an internal Chrome extension that turns a click on any page or component into an AI-drafted Jira ticket, written for both the developer and the coding agent that picks it up.

Days, not weeks
Athletic directors rebuilt every schedule by hand before they could sell a single ticket. I designed an AI importer that pulls existing schedules from files, links, and screenshots straight into Hometown—and shipped it as a working prototype in code.

The moments where models meet people: expectations, empty states, errors, and trust—so AI features feel usable, not magical.
Workflows, evals, and tooling I build so teams can design with models.
Patterns and components that keep AI and classic product UI speaking the same language as things grow.
Research sized to the decision, with findings PMs and engineers can act on, not slide decks that sit unread.
We name what “good” looks like before launch, then design so we can tell whether we hit it.

David operates like an owner of outcomes, not just a contributor of artifacts, which is exactly what we need in this role.
David demonstrates strong ownership and initiative, particularly in areas that extend beyond his immediate design responsibilities.
He has proactively leaned into establishing better design practices, systems, and tooling, including pushing the team to think more intentionally about how we can scale our work through AI and modern tools.
He communicates clearly upward when something feels unclear or at risk, and I trust him to close the loop on his commitments. Given his workload and the breadth of stakeholders he supports, that reliability matters a great deal.
Overall, David operates like an owner of outcomes, not just a contributor of artifacts, which is exactly what we need in this role.

I had the privilege of bringing on David to our team at Lendio, and I have no regrets.
