Hi, I’m Craig

I'm a Senior Product Designer specializing in accessible design systems and user-centered product experiences.

Over the past decade, I've worked across education, fintech, healthcare, and adtech, most recently at Amazon, where I contributed to both the Storm Design System and product features, like Events Manager. I'm exploring opportunities to bring my product design, systems thinking, and accessibility expertise to mission-driven organizations.

What people say

Craig was critical to building buy-in from product for prioritizing UDS. I don't think product would have agreed to prioritizing the design system had I pushed for it alone without also having Craig's buy-in in those early conversations. We were able to make a much bigger impact in these past few quarters by having Craig embedded in our context. I trust Craig and rely upon him to help guide our team to successful outcomes.

Derek Ellis - Senior Front End Engineer, WP Engine

Craig is incredibly smart and has an impressive depth of contextual knowledge — not just about UX best practices, but about how decisions impact systems, teams, and customers at scale. He's also an amazing collaborator: patient, supportive, and always willing to help me think through design challenges. Craig is the kind of designer who elevates the quality of any project he joins.

Yosi Montes de Oca - UX Designer, Amazon Ads

Craig has shown himself to be a thoughtful designer who thinks systematically to ensure we are building at scale and is detail-oriented to focus on creating accessible experiences for all. Not only that, Craig shows up every day willing to help, support our customers, and can execute quickly. He’s quick to pitch in with customer work or to help out a coworker with any urgent need.
