## Experience

### Ayin Health Solutions
*Enterprise healthcare SaaS — multi-tenant platform for health plans and provider operations*

**Principal Product Designer** · Mar 2023 – Present · *Co-founder, AI Accelerator Team*  
**Senior Product Designer** · Nov 2017 – Mar 2023

#### Principal Product Designer · Co-founder, AI Accelerator Team

- Co-founded the AI Accelerator Team (one of two founding members): defined charter, practice, and how the org proves GenAI priorities from concept → validated prototype → production-minded product.
- Own design for GenAI and AI-workflow initiatives using AI-assisted design, prototyping, and rapid iteration.
- Designed and proved out an **AI Claims Adjudication engine**—GenAI-assisted claims decisioning workflows for plan operations.
- Designed and shipped **Ayin Iris**, a live enterprise inquiry and case-management platform: in-product claim inquiries and operational questions route into a ticket workflow for claims analysts to triage, respond, resolve, and close, with role-based secured PHI access tied to Claims, Authorizations, and related entities. Delivers **$250K+ in annual organizational savings**.
- Built **Ayin Wiki**, an internal knowledge product using Karpathy-style LLM wiki foundations on **AWS Bedrock**—users upload raw content; the system produces a structured wiki available via authenticated web access and **MCP server** for agent/tool integration.
- Converted the organization **Figma design system for LLM consumption** and combined it with Ayin Wiki so teams can **start a project with design tokens, components, and patterns available immediately**—keeping AI-assisted and human-built work **aligned with internal and external product UI**.
- Enable internal teams to design and ship their own AI-assisted tooling, including a **self-serve report generation** application and a tool that monitors **OHA and government sources** for current regulatory guidance and rules—providing design guidance and Claude Code / LLM coaching from idea through working prototype.
- Partner with product, engineering, and operations on tradeoffs in a regulated environment (edge cases, safe defaults, human-in-the-loop, permissions); elevate craft standards through critique and design guidance.

#### Selected product impact (Senior → Principal)

- Led end-to-end redesign of **pre-authorization and referral submission**—user research with provider offices and health-plan partners, information architecture segmentation (Care Types), and guided submission patterns—**reducing submission errors by 90%** and decreasing plan-side rework.
- Designed **care management** experiences with external subject-matter experts: multi-party journeys for enrollment, care plans, and monitoring.
- Designed **universal survey/assessment** and **configuration** interfaces for data-dense, multi-purpose enterprise administration.
- Established and deployed a comprehensive **Figma design system**, improving collaboration velocity with Agile engineering teams.
- Directed rebrand (PHTECH → Ayin); designed and developed the company website.

Feb 2016 – Nov 2017

- Designed multi-tenant B2B subscription e-commerce and CRM workflows in a fast-paced startup environment.
- Delivered design system, rapid prototypes, stakeholder alignment, and usability testing; product was **acquired by a competitor**.

### Dedicated Crew Chief — United States Air Force
Apr 2004 – Apr 2010
