Hey! I'm Scott, a "designer who codes." Principal/staff level product designer & builder working remotely from Atlanta, GA, USA (previously San Francisco & Berkeley, CA).

I'm equally at home in a text editor or Figma file, a stakeholder meeting or collaborative workshop, and I love complex problems. If you're solving something interesting, let's have a chat!

I'm seeking employment or contract. Currently, I consult with engineering teams and dev shops, leading UX and product design for B2B and B2C SaaS products.

→ As a design generalist with 10+ years of experience, I get to wear several hats as we go from idea to launch. Here's a summary of the skills & benefits I bring to the table:

• Product design for SaaS products, focusing on user retention and product led-growth.

-- Exploring opportunities for AI integration is a passion of mine. I love building MVPs or enhancing existing products with features that users demand and stick around for.

• UX & UI design that inspires user adoption & retention. Great UI is based on UX systems thinking that prevents the problems that cause churn.

-- I utilize methodologies like Object Oriented UX, Jobs to be Done, and Design Build Use to unravel complexity and understand what really motivates users and helps them be awesome.

• Designing in the browser using markup & CSS. This workflow allows us to rapidly iterate prototypes for user testing.

-- Handing off clean, shippable frontend code (instead of just Figma files) streamlines the frontend development process. Pesky cross-platform visual bugs never have a chance.

→ If you've read this far, let's connect and see if we'd be a good fit!

Cheers!
