Hi, I’m Matt
I have worked at Microsoft as a product Designer building cutting edge artificial intelligence tools. Previously, I was a UX designer at PitchBook Data, a financial data and software company.
My passion lies in designing well thought-out product experiences rooted in user’s needs. While studying physical product design at the University of Oregon, I came across the UX space and transitioned into the digital product design.
