About me

Hi, I'm Bryce, a senior product designer with 9 years of experience in UX and product design.

I'm a naturally curious person and have always found myself asking questions and trying to solve one thing or another. I still very much enjoy the product design journey working from "I have no idea" to the creative output that solves a problem in the world.

As a product designer, I believe that empathy, creativity, and collaboration are essential skills. I strive to understand my users and create products that meet their needs in meaningful and innovative ways. I enjoy working with cross-functional teams to explore new ideas and solutions, and I'm always looking for ways to improve my design process and skills.

When I'm not working, I love to explore and experience all the wonders of life. Travelling to new places and learning about different cultures is a real passion of mine as it helps me see things from a different perspective. During the summer, I find solace in gardening as it keeps me grounded and connected to nature. Every year, my garden is a blank canvas that I can create new things on, and it never fails to delight me. I also enjoy playing sports, running, and other activities that keep me active. Reading, listening to music, and spending time with my family and two dogs bring me immense joy and fuel my creativity. And, most importantly, I always try to add a bit of humor to my conversations and experiences with friends, because laughter is truly the best medicine!

"Bryce became the go-to expert on the Personal Injury Add-On launch. He didn't have to become a product expert, but he dug in, learned our customer's workflows inside and out, and helped to create a beautiful experience for our customers. Bryce was asked to demo the product for customers, prospects, partners, all-hands, training meetings, and more. Bryce jumped at every opportunity to help and support. We leaned on Bryce for personal injury and product knowledge and we are so grateful for his help and support."
