About Allyson

I’m a Senior Product Designer with 8+ years of experience designing complex digital products across web and mobile.

I work at the intersection of structure and craft — shaping user flows, information architecture, and scalable systems while delivering polished, high-quality UI.

My experience spans SaaS platforms, AI-driven tools, fintech dashboards, and hospitality booking systems. I enjoy bringing clarity to complex workflows, improving existing products, and building scalable foundations for growing teams.

I’ve worked closely with product managers, engineers, and marketing teams in both agency and in-house environments, leading research, user interviews, and end-to-end design delivery.
