Hey there, I‘m Mallory.

I’m a product design leader, accessibility expert, and systems thinker creating intuitive, human-centered experiences that meet people where they are.

With over six years of experience leading design teams in regulated industries such as finance and insurance, I’ve successfully implemented accessibility-driven solutions that have transformed organizational practices and user experiences.

What Drives Me

Drawing from my training as a grief educator, I bring a profound understanding of navigating change and uncertainty. This perspective helps me create intuitive, accessible experiences that provide clarity in complex systems—for both users and the teams building them.

My neurodivergent perspective helps me recognize patterns others overlook, approach challenges with creativity, and design adaptable systems that evolve with users instead of forcing them to adapt to rigid structures.

By blending accessibility, systems thinking, and a deep understanding of human resilience, I’ve led initiatives that transformed the way teams and organizations design for change.

Core Beliefs

  • Every experience I design starts with understanding the needs of real people. I believe that empathy drives connection and ensures solutions resonate with those they are meant to serve.

  • I believe everyone should have sovereignty over their own lives, choices, and experiences. My work reflects this value by empowering individuals to maintain their autonomy and dignity, ensuring that the solutions I design support personal agency and foster trust.

  • I see change as a potent opportunity for growth and creativity. By staying grounded in values, I help individuals and teams navigate uncertainty and harness it to create meaningful transformation.

  • Great design doesn’t exist in isolation—it’s part of an interconnected system. Inspired by nature’s regenerative cycles, I aim to create solutions that are sustainable, adaptable, and rooted in balance.
