How I can help you
I’ve worked with dozens of design and product teams. Many are held back by the lack of a clearly articulated vision and conceptual structures that bring their products to life.
That’s where I come in. I provide clarity, order, and alignment to UX design projects by using architectural thinking.
Specifically, this involves:
- Synthesizing research findings into actionable insights
- Designing systems models, maps, and frameworks
- Developing a UX architecture for your product (or product family)
- Helping turn abstract ideas into testable prototypes
Over the last 25 years, I’ve architected digital experiences and “made the complex clear” for a wide range of organizations, from non-profits to Fortune-500 corporations.
I’ve worked with clients in diverse industries, including high tech, financial services, transportation, retail, and healthcare. As a result, I can quickly identify patterns in complex problems and cross-pollinate innovative solutions.

Jorge quickly leveled up on a very challenging domain, brought frameworks and methods to help us understand our situation, and produced both sense and order. He documented his work in a conceptual model with clear and beautiful diagrams as well as through text and conversation. Every time I would tell him, “I’m sorry this is so messy,” he’d say something like, “Oh, this is the kind of problem I enjoy!”
