Work

Problems, and what happened next.

Three long stories, then the shorter ones. Enterprise healthcare, a SaaS company I co-founded, and a restaurant app used by millions.

01  Optum

One shared shell.
19 enterprise healthcare properties.

Optum runs 19 customer-facing properties across two audiences, each with its own header, footer, sign-in, and information architecture.

I led the discovery and product strategy behind a shared navigation shell: a link-by-link audit of the current state, three costed directional models, and the governance that decides who can change what.

The live Optum for Business navigation. An audience toggle and utility bar sit above a main nav whose contents change per audience.

02  Northflow

What happens when the workflow itself becomes the product?

I co-founded Northflow to rethink how content teams manage production.

The work grew from customer interviews and workflow mapping into a SaaS platform, product strategy, AI assisted operations, positioning, and specialized AI agents designed to take repetitive production work off a team’s plate.

Northflow projects board. Every card surfaces where a production is actually stuck, not just what it is called.

03  Subway

A one-star experience became a 4.5-star app.

I worked on a major redesign of Subway’s mobile ordering experience during a broader product transformation, helping simplify important ordering flows and create a clearer customer experience.

Subway mobile app screens covering order review, rewards, deals, payment and order history

Subway mobile ordering. Rewards, deals and payment had to coexist without burying the order itself.

Other problems I’ve worked on.

Not everything needs a full case study. These are shorter, and some of them are still my favorites. Open any one to see it full size.

Have a complicated problem?

Those are usually the interesting ones.
