Product Designer Specializing in Generative AI and UI/UX Interaction Design

3 yrs experience · Atlanta, GA · 30-40 hrs/week

About

I’m a product designer focused on simplifying complex workflows and bringing clarity to ambiguous problem spaces. My work centers on designing systems that support confident decision-making, reducing friction across end-to-end experiences, and aligning user outcomes with business strategy. I’m drawn to problems where thoughtful structure matters: places where design isn’t just about screens, but about influence, clarity, and creating practices teams can rely on. I approach design as a discipline; something to shape, own, and improve, not just a simple set of deliverables. Right now I’m especially interested in agentic AI systems, scalable interaction models, and the kind of product thinking that helps organizations work smarter, not harder.

Experience

  • Product Interface Designer · LoopRoots Foundation03-01-2026

    Drove Phase I integration scope for three physical product lines—Restock Hubs, Locker Units, and In-Car Vending Kits—when the org was light on formal product/architecture coverage. Turned a fuzzy mandate into review-ready artifacts: integration brief, stakeholder roadmap (gates, SLAs, decision traceability), system diagram (devices ↔ backend ↔ app/dashboard, MQTT / HTTP / WebSocket), and a hardware-focused technical roadmap (controllers, locks, sensors, Wi‑Fi / BLE / wired, plus phased rollout and trigger-to-Figma mapping placeholders).

  • User Experience Designer · 48in482025-10-01 – 2025-10-01

    As the UI/UX Designer, I drove the functional execution of the SEPPA website, translating content strategy into a compliant, professional, and high-action user experience. My direct efforts included finalizing the site's information architecture (IA), establishing the clear visual hierarchy (H1/H3 structure), setting accessibility standards (Alt Text), and critically, troubleshooting and fixing a core non-functional contact form error for site launch.

  • Independent Product Design & Generative AI Strategy Consultant · Freelance | Self-Employed2023-03-01 –

    My focus is on tackling the biggest challenges in Generative AI, where I partner with the business side to transform ambiguous problems (like operational costs) into clear, actionable product strategies. I specialize in designing the delicate human-AI interaction loop to ensure users feel trust and control over the model's output and I execute the full design work; from wireframe concepts to polished high-fidelity prototypes, to guaranteed technical feasibility. I approach every project with collaborative partnership, committed to delivering tangible, outcome-driven value.
