Work
My work spans design systems, enterprise product, and AI-assisted practice.
Context is the product. Prompts are not.
Self-directed · 2026
Claude orchestrated across three surfaces: Figma via the Plugin API, Notion via MCP, and the codebase via Claude Code. The documentation is not overhead. It is the infrastructure that makes the next task work.
Where the AI practice started.
Silk Worldwide → Atlantic Technology Group · 2025–Present
Building a component library while serving as the sole creative resource across multiple brands required a different approach when faced with deadlines. Generating the Figma library programmatically is what made it possible, and it is where the practice documented in Arbor began.

Digital DOS: Closing the Loop Between the Rig and the Office
Halliburton · 2023–2025
Internal Systems, Enablement, and a Proprietary Stack
ExxonMobil · 2016–2024
Three engagements over eight years, all circling the same problem: a new internal team exists, it has something valuable, and the rest of the organization does not know about it or cannot use it. I learned ExxonMobil’s proprietary front-end framework and stopped being a designer who handed work to developers.
Retail Brand, Packaging, and a Centennial
CITGO · 2021–2022
Retail marketing across thousands of stations, and the Mystik centennial, where I re-illustrated a vintage character from historic advertising rather than designing something new. The systems problem was hiding in the print work: every piece had to be installable by a station manager who had never seen it.
Internal Communications and Customer-Facing Booking
United Airlines · 2019–2021
Two contract engagements. The first, an internal tool bridging ground staff and flight crew: gate agents, flight attendants, captains, operations. The second, the customer-facing ticket purchasing experience, which shipped and remains in use.
Vendor Intelligence, Ecommerce, and Startup Work
Freelance · 2019–2025
Six years of independent work alongside contract engagements. The piece worth describing is Riemer Group, a homepage redesign that became a vendor intelligence platform redesign, because their data product had the problem most data products have out of the box: it showed everything.
