hi, i'm sean
I am currently a design department of one at Foxen, where I do everything from setting our design system standards to choreographing design/research/strategy/implementation across the multiple platforms I support.
I love design and I love product. They've been some of my best teachers about the world, the people in it, and the technology that changes both.

my work
- How I run design at Foxen
One designer, four teams, and the infrastructure that makes the ratio sustainable.
- 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.
