Hi, I'm Sam, a UX and Product Leader based in Austin. With over 10 years of experience in design and product strategy, I love turning complex problems into simple, elegant solutions. In my last major role, I worked as the Design Director at Rabbet, a construction finance startup, and have done years of consulting.
Over the last two years, I've been immersed in contract work, designing board games, and renovating my home. These projects were fantastic for honing my strategic planning and problem-solving skills. In my downtime, I enjoy painting, cooking, and camping.
Now, I’m excited to bring my problem-solving abilities and passion for design to new, challenging opportunities.
