I’m Kim.
Thanks for staying curious

I’m a 🧀 Milwaukee based designer, yes Mill-e-wah-que, having recently located from Austin, Texas where I started my interactive design career working on consumer experiences for both small startups and big-tech.

I’m passionate about designing for mission driven products and services that echo my values and solve for the most complex needs of good 🖤’d humans. I have extensive experience collaborating with cross-functional product, tech, operational and clinical leaders from discovery to launch, designing for such industries as home health care, pharmaceutical, travel, insurance & e-commerce.

Where I shine

  • I’m drawn to the problem underneath the problem. Once the root cause is clear, the opportunity becomes obvious. From there I focus on simplifying the path forward and designing solutions that work across the whole system.

  • I’m often brought in when teams are circling or the problem isn’t clearly defined. I lead discovery, bring stakeholders together, and pressure-test assumptions to clarify what we’re actually solving so teams can move forward with shared understanding and avoid costly misalignment later.

  • I leverage tools like Cursor and Claude to break traditional design cycles, translating concepts into working prototypes that accelerate alignment and create cleaner paths to engineering execution.

  • I invest in growing designers into strategic partners, strengthening their problem framing, storytelling, and stakeholder management. Strong teams build stronger products.

Personally speaking…

In my spare time my passions are back-country camping, spending time with kids & shooting photos on my Fuji X100V. I have a knack for cooking on whim & never follow recipes.
