One design system across four DHCS workstreams
I designed shared patterns that made service rules visible across four California health-care workstreams. The Figma system kept components, decisions, and handoff connected as teams moved from Adobe XD.

College football, beyond the scoreboard
I built CFB Model Lab to explore why my predictions disagreed with betting lines. It brings Python modeling and college football research into a product I can use each week.

A little about me
I'm Stephen, a new dad from the Midwest, based near Chicago. My client work includes service tools, healthcare interfaces, and AI review workflows. I like seeing how far I can take an idea with AI. I still have an unreasonable number of opinions about buttons.

Before product design, I worked in digital marketing at Grainger and as an associate account executive at Yelp.
CFB Model Lab is my college football research app. Its matchup tool lets you choose two teams, change the venue, and see how the projected margin changes. I designed the interface and built the Python modeling workflows with AI-assisted development.
See the CFB Model Lab case studyI also contributed an accepted Python fix to Hermes Agent that keeps dashboard actions from inheriting another profile's credentials and settings. The change includes a regression test.
