Experience

EnergyHub

Senior Product Designer

September 2023 - March 2025

At EnergyHub, I led the end-to-end redesign of the ChargingRewards app, resulting in a 46% reduction in user opt-outs and a 4.7/5 trust rating during beta—clear indicators of improved engagement and user confidence. I facilitated cross-functional design sprints, research synthesis, and product reviews to align user behavior with strategic goals like grid stability. By embedding closely with product and engineering teams, I fostered a test-driven, user-centered culture, introduced lean UX practices, and accelerated iteration cycles.

Early-Stage Startups

As a freelance product designer, I led end-to-end design of MVPs and investor prototypes across health tech, AI, and SaaS—defining UX strategy and delivering high-fidelity UI.

To enable scalable development and continuous iteration, I built lightweight design systems and established user research workflows that kept feedback at the core of the design process.

Through rapid mixed-methods research and usability testing, I delivered data-informed, modular design iterations that improved both patient and site staff experience.
