Hi, I'm Cody

I am currently working remotely as a Senior Product Designer at Howl building design systems and product experiences. I graduated from University of Michigan with an Art & Design degree in Communication Design and a dual minor in Business and Entrepreneurship.

I'm grateful for the opportunity to work and lead product design initiatives at companies like Square, Twitch, Nagarro, IBM, and now Howl. I am an advocate for creating design systems, compelling interactions, and experiences that are rooted in strong storytelling.

I hope to continue learning from design leaders of different industries and help brands and products build trust with their users.
