Modernizing Scientific Software Through Product Design Strategy
How do you modernize mission-critical software used by scientists without disrupting the workflows they depend on? I led the shift from instrument-centered applications to a workflow-centered experience, building toward a more extensible direction for materials science research.

Simplifying a Scientific Platform to Improve Adoption
A powerful materials platform whose legacy interface made it hard to learn and adopt beyond expert users. I led discovery and product definition, changing the product model — reorganizing a fragmented experience into a single, familiar input–compute–output workflow to lower the barrier to entry for users beyond the expert core.

Photographers didn’t trust automated picks they couldn’t interrogate or correct — earlier automation attempts had failed despite the technology working. I led UX strategy and product design direction to orchestrate 30+ ML algorithms into a single calibration-driven workflow, making recommendations legible, adjustable, and reversible rather than automating photographer judgment.
Reported review time: approximately 18.5 hours to about 1 hour.
