Hi, I'm Patrick 👋

A little about me

Right now I work independently on AI products. I focus on tools that can handle routine work, explain what they did, and leave final decisions to people.

Before that I was a Product designer at Elements Connect, a software company that builds operations tools for manufacturers. I led research and design for its first marketplace for extra raw materials. I later led the redesign of its staffing and billing platform. Over two years, I also built shared design rules and helped hire and mentor a small design team.

Earlier, I worked on surgeon-facing UX for a cardiac-imaging AI platform. I got my real start at Purdue's Envision Center, a research lab that builds visual tools and simulations. I designed AR and VR training tools for groups such as NASA and OSHA while finishing my Master's in UX Design.

Outside work, I surf, snowboard, and spend time with my three chinchillas.
