A senior product designer with a decade of experience leading projects and teams.
I'm Steph — a product designer and design leader known for delivering results. I recently led a project that accrued $20M in just over a week.
My specialty lies in turning ambiguity into action — solving complex problems, simplifying innovative tech for users, and designing experiences people actually love. I've worked across the full spectrum of business stages, from early startups and fast-growth phases to scaling teams and mature orgs, always driving clarity, speed, and impact.
Long before I was leading product design teams, I was behind the scenes on high-stakes shoots with top photographers like Dan Tobin Smith—working on everything from luxury products to confidential Apple iPhone launches. That early exposure to precision, storytelling, and craft still fuels how I design today.

Tutoring & mentorship
In addition to my day-to-day work in product design, I mentor emerging designers through ADPList and occasionally guest lecture at the University of the Arts London. My journey into product design has been non-linear, and that’s something I value deeply. Moving between leadership roles and hands-on design work has kept my skills sharp and my thinking current—especially in a field that evolves as fast as tech does. Mentoring and teaching are a natural extension of that mindset. I believe in sharing what I’ve learned, staying connected to the community, and learning just as much from others along the way.
