FAQs
What kept you in betting for so long?
The practical answer is immigration. My green card process has taken many years to complete, which kept me in the same industry longer than I might otherwise have planned.
Fortunately, the industry has been in its infancy, and the work has continually evolved. I had the chance to help bring an established global product into a new and rapidly changing market, working through how to deliver fun, exciting product enhancements in a safe and responsible way.
My role evolved too. I worked as a Design Director, a player-coach, and a Principal IC across Horse Racing and Sportsbook. The industry stayed consistent, but the problems, teams, and customers did not.
So, are you an IC or a Manager?
I’m both! I have experience in building and managing a mid-size design team with TVG and FanDuel Racing and I have most recently focused on hands on delivery as a Principal Product designer on the FanDuel Sportsbook.
I’m open to both types of roles, or even a mix of them.
What are you looking for in a new challenge?
- Ideally remote (I can accommodate many timezones).
- A company with ambition and a drive to win.
- Design is valued and has room to shape the product.
- Awesome colleagues who I can grow alongside.
What would you bring to a new role?
I would bring a clear point of view, strong product judgment and the flexibility to work at the level the role needs.
I would start by understanding the product, the business, the customers and the team, then focus on where design can make the biggest difference.
That could mean shaping direction, improving delivery, developing designers or working directly with product and engineering. The goal is always the same: create clarity, raise the quality of decisions and help the team deliver better outcomes.
How is AI changing how you work?
I am using AI to move faster, broaden my thinking and spend less time on work that can be automated.
Figma Make, Claude, ChatGPT and Codex are now part of how I explore directions, challenge assumptions, prototype ideas and tighten the path from thinking to delivery. I am also testing other tools to understand where they genuinely improve the process and where they simply create more noise.
I’m trying new workflows across research, content, design and implementation, then keep the parts that make the work better.
