Designer on Viva Topics

Sole & founding designer, employee #2, and key member at startup’s earliest stages. Helped drive original problem space research and validation; designed & spec'ed MVP features; designed logo and branding.

To this day I am the sole IC, responsible for the research and design of the entire platform, including all customer and internal-facing functionality. I frequently serve as PM, owning requirement definition and release planning. I also manage a recurring research program with customers (including some of the largest commercial property owners in the world) to validate product ideas and generate insight for our product roadmap.

Primary designer for Socrata’s new major product initiative–an internal data-sharing platform for government agencies; conducted generative & evaluative research to help determine MVP deliverables; led massive coordination effort to adapt existing platform UX to meet new requirements. My work toward this MVP directly contributed to the company’s attractiveness as an acquisition by Tyler Tech.

Designed Socrata’s state-level financial transparency product, directly enabling the closing of Socrata's highest ARR deals.
