Howdy, I’m David. Product Design Leader at Google.

I am a Product Design & AI Operating Partner with 20+ years of experience shaping GenAI and ML-powered products across Google, Microsoft, F5, ServiceNow, and startups. At Google, I lead strategic design on Gemini and AI initiatives across Google Cloud, Google Maps Platform, and Google Health—bridging 0→1 creation with 1→100 scale while protecting long-term product integrity. I help teams eliminate design debt and build clear, high-impact experiences for consumers, developers, shoppers, engineers, patients, pilots, and truckers. Previously, I designed the Microsoft Store Cart & Checkout including Xbox All-Access, pioneered conversational design for ServiceNow Virtual Agent, led F5’s ML, Anomaly Detection, and observability design, and worked across four startups as a PM, SWE, UXR, and UXD. Driven by humility, passion, and curiosity, I turn complex systems into intuitive human value.

David was assigned to my project well after we got started but quickly caught up on the project diving into the existing project charter and work in progress business artifacts. Most importantly he quickly understand the requirements and scoped the UX/Design deliverables needed. Once the goals were clear he iterated on the design factoring in the design requirements and best practices of external companies as well as Microsoft’s own design rules and requirements. The result was his work allowed us to translate a data and financial modeling heavy proposal into one that was easy to understand and take action on."

Topics I'm exploring

While I've strived to focus on the big picture for projects, I've come to learn that being a well-rounded designer requires learning about Business, problem solving and future tech to make great software products. I am learning about:

Business Mindset and Product Management
AI-powered experiences
Human Centered Machine Learning
