UX / Product Designer for complex, regulated experiences (Tax,Health & Investments)

I design clear, compliant workflows that help people complete high-stakes tasks with confidence. I collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and stakeholders to move from ambiguity → tested solutions → dev-ready execution.

Enterprise UX • Systems + workflows • Accessibility-aware • Agile delivery • Figma → prototypes → handoff

Based in Indianapolis • Open to remote/hybrid roles
