At Snyk, I design experiences for developers that solve security problems and identify risk in small business and enterprise organizations. I work across various teams that make products for data visualization, reporting, and vulnerability management. Additionally, I facilitate our design team and front end teams with the Patch Design System through libraries of UI components and design tokens.

*GoInstant in Salesforce*

GoInstant was an early product that brought multiplayer connectivity to web experiences. Drop in a piece of code into your web app and multi-cursor interactions were possible without friction. As the sole designer on the team, branding and product design were both under my direction. This included building API workflows, demos and documentation.
