hi, i'm sean
I'm a product designer who does his best work where design doesn't exist yet. I take ambiguous, complex problems and turn them into shipped products, laying down the design foundations as I go. To me, design is a means to an end, never the end itself.

my work
- Flexible design patterns are the best tool for an uncertain future
PetClear, from market selection to the pattern decisions that let one product quietly become a screening platform.
- Creating a claims process that prevents errors and increases confidence
Redesigning the property-manager claims experience around where time and money actually leaked.
- Leaning into a user's natural behavior is far easier than trying to change it
People don’t read - so the upload flow stopped asking them to, and started answering them instead.
