Senior Product Designer at Rula | Design systems, onboarding optimization, cross-functional leadership
As a Senior Product Designer, I apply my 27 years of experience and passion for product design to create and implement features that ship quickly and with high quality. I use Figma as my primary tool to create detailed mocks and specs that follow and extend the existing style guide and enable engineers to build new features. I also advocate for user-centered product roadmaps, new interface guidelines and design patterns, investments in refinement, polish, and iteration, and insights driven by user research and customer feedback. I develop deep empathy for the customers and use research to inform design solutions. I communicate and present design solutions across a range of mediums and fidelities to stakeholders and other product designers while defending design decisions and incorporating feedback into the design cycle. I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to deliver the best possible experience for Fleetio's users. Additionally, I led design strategy for Mudflap, built a scalable design system, and improved onboarding flows (reducing time from sign-up to first swipe by 62%), and conducted user research and testing to drive usability and accessibility improvements, partnering with developers to ensure high-quality implementation and contributing to experimentation efforts that optimize conversion and product performance.
