Hi! Happy to see you here… well, I don't mean here, this is Shibuya Crossing in Tokyo. I mean here as in on my about me page!
I'm Ryan, a product designer who has been building and shipping B2B/SaaS products at Microsoft.. you know? The creators of Clippy.
I've honed my experience around crafting designs in the depths of the enterprise Saas, B2B, & Admin-sphere - dashboards, data viz, content management platforms, IT & HR portals - and what can I say, I love it!
Before this, I designed experiences for consumer-facing, sports content (also at Microsoft) and focused on social impact work, supporting a non-profit's record expungement page and internal design system guidance.
There's more!
Design on my mind
My product design philosophy is rooted in a focus on uncovering what’s truly needed, and shaping clarity from complexity. The best way to achieve this is through research, cross-functional collaboration and balance.
I thrive on negotiating tradeoffs with precision, ensuring that every decision weighs user value with business impact.
This has helped me to create coherent designs that not only function seamlessly but also drive measurable outcomes at scale.
