I'm Nelson, a product designer with more than 15 years of experience leading teams, driving strategy, and elevating craft.

Currently, I’m helping to transform the IT experience for employees at Cisco.

Previously, I led design at Compass—where I helped real estate agents grow their business with connected tools.

While at Condé Nast, I launched the paywall for Vanity Fair, released a new publication for Architectural Digest, and drove engagement while leading the digital experience at WIRED.

Before all that, I worked on everything from industrial circuit breakers to institutional banking and automotive ecosystems at Frog.
