ADP Assist
2024 → Preset
I am currently leading design for ADP Assist, an AI-powered HR assistant built into ADP’s HCM platforms. It uses generative AI to answer HR questions, flag issues like payroll errors, and automate routine tasks. I drove the product design from early concept to production, shaping the overall experience and collaborating with teams across ADP as we continue to expand its capabilities. Now rolling out to over a million clients, it has been one of the most complex and rewarding projects I have worked on.

ADP × StandOut
2022 → 2023
When the StandOut talent activation platform was being integrated into ADP’s broader HCM ecosystem, I led a small design team focused on a segment of ADP’s talent offerings. Our primary goal was to translate StandOut’s strengths-based approach into ADP’s talent suite, ensuring a cohesive user experience while preserving the unique character of StandOut.
StandOut
2018 → 2021
I led design for the StandOut talent activation platform, a product that helps teams discover their unique strengths and helps companies increase and measure their employee engagement.
Some work I’m proud of:
- Designed the Team Activities feature, a real-time multiplayer game focused on building team connection that was very positively received by our clients when so many of us were working from home during COVID.
- Designed the Coaching Intelligence feature, which uses machine learning to surface personalized insights for managers on how to better support and engage their team members. Featured in Forbes ↗!
- Designed and built StandOut’s first internal design system using Vue.js and Sketch Libraries, partnering closely with Engineering to champion component-driven development.
And a lot more! Learn more about it on StandOut Product Overview page ↗.
Odds & Ends
A long time ago...
Before ADP I worked at GREE ↗, a Japanese gaming company. I was on the data team as a full-stack developer and UX designer, building internal tools that empowered teams across the company. This role laid the foundation for my transition from engineering to product design.
I’ve also worked on some fun side-projects:
- Tunetab was a fun collaborative CLI video playlists art project that I built using node.js and a DIY React framework ↗. I posted it on Hacker News and it ended up on ProductHunt ↗ for a few days!
- I made a black and white silent fan-edit of the Star Wars prequels ↗ because they hold a soft spot in my heart.
- I used to play around with Ableton to create mixes, archived on Mixcloud ↗. I like them all, but this is one of my favorites ↗.
More about me
I built my first website when I was 12, right around the time we got our first modem at home. It was made with a lot of photos and HTML tables and was about how cool the 996 911 Turbo was. I put it up on Angelfire. I have been building on the web ever since.
I have a lot of hobbies. I have spent a lot of my life practicing photography. I like to take my car to the track a few times a year. I love to grill and am trying my hand at pizza making.
