GetInsured is dedicated to helping Americans find their suitable health insurance plan and stay abreast of the latest health reform news.

I am a multidisciplinary product designer with skills and experience across digital and brick & mortar domains. I work closely with product management, business and engineering teams to create a shared vision of a product and lead it to successful fruition. In start-ups environments, being a generalist, I have been adept at fitting in the roles of a design strategist, ux researcher, interaction designer, visual designer and ui developer. I believe in the adage that good user experiences can be crafted with high quality skills, tools, technology and individual prowess, but great user experiences can arise only from the synergy of iterative learning, user centric design processes, organizational culture and shared understanding amongst all those working together.
