Consistency at Scale
The same pattern had five different looks across product suites. I audited it and built one shared system covering 5,000+ screens, so anyone could build a new screen without guessing.

Two states each required their own standards and terminology. Rather than rebuild from scratch, I adapted the flagship experience into one shared product in six months. Both adopted it successfully, without duplicated engineering effort.

I'm drawn to projects with messy constraints and no obvious answer. I enjoy understanding how people work, making sense of complexity, and turning it into experiences that feel clear, useful, and approachable.
