My Contributions

At H5, I led design strategy for the entire product suite—including award-winning tools like Matter Intelligence, Matter Analytics, Email Threading, and Active Learning. One of my most impactful contributions was redesigning a 15-year-old legacy desktop app into a modern web-based SaaS product, a transformation that played a key role in H5’s acquisition. Over my time there, I also built three design systems and managed a UX designer for five years.

Following the acquisition by Lighthouse, I led the redesign of H5’s suite to align with Lighthouse’s product ecosystem. This included integrating cross-platform data models and expanding the Lighthouse Design System to accommodate the unique needs of H5’s features—ensuring a cohesive, scalable design experience across both product lines.
