Years of experience
12 years designing for mission-critical systems serving 25M+ users across Fortune 500s.
Ready for your next transformation challenge.
About me
I specialize in blending aerospace-grade systems thinking with user-centered design to create products that scale for millions of users. From TD's mobile banking revolution to IBM's wealth management platforms, I turn complex technical challenges into intuitive experiences that drive measurable business results.
What I Do
I build scalable design systems that unify experiences across multiple brands and teams. At Bell, I led the migration of 15 teams to a unified Figma system, reducing design debt 60% while maintaining consistency across 3 major telecommunications brands.
I translate complex financial concepts into intuitive user experiences that balance regulatory compliance with user engagement. My engineering background enables me to bridge technical constraints with user needs in mission-critical banking environments.
I help enterprise teams solve complex user problems through AI-enhanced design methodology. By combining aerospace-grade systems thinking with conversational AI interfaces, I've reduced advisor task completion time and streamlined financial workflows for millions of users.
I operate as a design-informed business strategist, influencing outcomes across engineering, product, and executive teams. Through systematic UX optimization and process innovation, I've accelerated development velocity 18% while mentoring 20+ designers into senior roles.
I connect user experience decisions to measurable business outcomes. My systematic approach to design validation and optimization has contributed to significant operational improvements, cost reductions, and user satisfaction gains across Fortune 500 implementations.
The rare intersection of aerospace precision and AI-native design thinking.12 years designing mission-critical systems for 25M+ users across Canada's leading financial and telecom brands.

Unstoppable Advantage
The Alex Advantage:
I'm the only UX leader who combines:
→ Aerospace precision (systems that cannot fail)
→ AI-native design (conversational interfaces that build trust)
→ Fortune 500 scale (products serving 25M+ users)
→ Revenue accountability (proven business impact)
The Result: While competitors hire traditional UX designers, you get the strategic advantage of rocket-science thinking applied to user experience.
"Alex is the only designer I've met who speaks both aerospace precision and business revenue. His wealth platform design influenced billions in client assets while cutting advisor task time significantly."
Curnel Jones
"In the fast-paced startup environment, Alex thrived where many designers struggle. His ability to iterate quickly while maintaining a clear vision helped us navigate uncertainty and rapidly evolving requirements. The product experience he created became central to our acquisition. Alex doesn't just design interfaces—he designs business value."
