get close. measure. iterate.
move the unknown to understood.
turn insights into impact.
hi. i’m brad. 👋🏻
i build customer-centric systems that help organizations move faster, make better decisions, and solve the problems that matter most.
about
i believe that the best experiences are made possible by closing the gaps between those who build products and those who use them.
i focus on developing the systems that close those gaps: rigorous research that moves fast; operational mechanisms that scale; design systems that create consistency; measurement frameworks that drive decisions; and teams that stay curious and move fast.
i currently lead research operations at Amazon.
what i do
research
study design & execution — generative and evaluative, research across methods including interviews, diary studies, surveys, contextual inquiry, and ethnographic fieldwork.
operations — building AI systems for intake, prioritization, recruitment, and knowledge management that let research scale without losing rigor.
design
information architecture — structuring content, navigation, and workflows so complexity becomes manageable.
product & interaction design — solving usability and clarity problems, leading redesigns, building design systems, and staying hands-on with prototyping and UI.
strategy/impact
measurement frameworks — connecting qualitative insight to quantitative outcomes with KPIs, tracking systems, and models that tie research to business decisions.
process design — building the steps, templates, and workflows that make good practice repeatable.
leadership
team building — hiring, developing, and structuring research and design teams at every stage, from first hire to 10+ teams.
