Hi, I'm Nick 👋🏻
With over 8 years in digital product design, I bring a balanced skill set that combines design, development, and research. My focus areas include building scalable design systems, creating accessible, user-centered interfaces, and using data and research to guide decisions. Whether it's consumer or enterprise, mobile or desktop, my goal is to craft intuitive solutions that genuinely improve the user experience.
I’m passionate about tackling the right problems—ones that not only help businesses succeed but also make a meaningful impact on users' lives. My approach to design is holistic, driving projects from strategy through execution with a strong foundation in research to understand and meet user needs.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and son, hitting the beach, diving into video games, exploring 3D printing and electronics, and following pretty much any sport. Go Blue!
