Core responsibilities
Key accomplishments
Challenges & growth
High-impact product design for enterprise users
My team helped ship new features for tens of thousands of users
Component design
Crafting creative solutions with tight engineering constraints
Standardizing common interaction design patterns across the product
Setting best design practices for a 50+ person product design team
Aligning 100+ designers and developers
My team made tremendous progress on our design system adoption through:
Aligning our Figma library with our UI framework
Establishing patterns and templates
Bringing in engineering early in the design process
Documentation that's extensive and constantly growing
High adoption, high usage
The products we supported (CX Cloud, PX Cloud) have high adoption. Designers used our Figma library and developers preferred using common components.
Our constant challenge is how to balance the need for customization. We don't want to stifle designer creativity but also want to support engineering to lower the time to ship.

We have over 300 Figma pages that are using the library to some capacity
Documentation overhaul
We went on long procurement journey to launch our documentation on zeroheight. It's not easy bringing a new tool to Cisco.

AI Hackathon
I lead a team of designers to integrate AI into CX Cloud.
We used the concept of web scraping to help users remediate security advisories. It would also train users on best security practices based on Cisco LLMs.
