Case studies from government, defense, healthcare, and enterprise — where good design changes lives.
A decision-support workspace for National Weather Service forecasters that turns a live weather picture into an issued product and a partner briefing without ever leaving the map. Public research build shipped 10 releases in 14 weeks.
Read AWARE — Weather Forecasting Decision Supportcase study →The platform that tells a National Weather Service forecaster what the forecast means for one partner's event — a stadium, an airport, a wildfire crew — before the weather arrives. I have led its design since 2023, from a research prototype to a national release across 120+ forecast offices. It is the direct ancestor of AWARE.
Read IDSS Engine — Turning Forecasts Into Partner Decisionscase study →A browser-only viewer for NetCDF model output. Drop a 220 MB forecast grid on the page and its field is on a 3D globe in under a second — no Python, no server, and the file never leaves the machine. Around 2,250 lines across 14 modules, built solo in two concentrated agent-paired sessions five months apart.
Read DataOrbit — Gridded Science Data, One Drag From a Globecase study →An offline-first iPhone app for planning radio communications on trips where the phone network is gone — primary, alternate and emergency channels, a rotating codebook, and a field mode you can read in direct sun or by red light. Its central design decision is a refusal: the app never lets "your radio can tune this" pass for "you are allowed to transmit here."
Read COMMSIX — Offline Radio Plans Without the False Green Lightcase study →A public hub where fire weather forecasters, researchers and land managers can find what social science has already learned about their needs — and add to it. The core design decision was to organize the site around needs rather than projects: every completed study is read together, its researchers' needs are ranked by how often they come up, and each one links back to the work it came from. It launches publicly at AMS in January 2027.
Read The Firehouse — A Public Home for Fire Weather Social Sciencecase study →A family landscaping company with 45 years of work behind it, and a Wix site that showed none of that work and had no way to request a quote. I redesigned and rebuilt it in one week, from brief to launch, around a single job: turn a visitor into a qualified quote request. The owners report a 200% increase in outreach and conversions since launch.
Read The Gardner's Inc. — A Landscaping Site That Asks for the Jobcase study →Identity and print work from Wicked Oni, the studio I've run since 2015, and from inside organizations with brands of their own. Three complete brand systems with written guidelines, label and packaging work, marks for NOAA programs, logos for food, retail, and outdoor brands, illustration and art prints, and campaign art for a software company, down to the flyers and posters.
Read Brand & Print — Identity Systems, Guidelines, and Collateralcase study →Replaced a legacy Windows desktop application with a modern React-based pricing tool, cutting task completion time by 40% for 200+ internal users.
Read Modernizing Pricing Operationscase study →Designed a common operating picture dashboard for combatant command workflows, enabling real-time situational awareness across distributed teams under strict security constraints.
Read Command & Control Operating Picturecase study →A National Health Enterprise
Redesigned a clinician-to-patient platform across web and mobile, delivering a unified design system that improved appointment completion rates by 28%.
Read Clinician Connection Platformcase study →A Mid-Market Financial Services Firm
Designed a real-time executive analytics platform that replaced a 12-hour manual reporting cycle with live dashboards, reducing executive decision latency from days to minutes.
Read Executive Analytics Platformcase study →An Industrial Cybersecurity Company
Three acquisitions in four years had left one company running five websites' worth of story on a single domain. I rebuilt the message architecture, the information architecture, and the conversion path around the person who actually starts the search — and demo requests from organic went up 2.4x.
Read Post-Acquisition Website Replatformcase study →A Global Precision Components Manufacturer
Eleven plants, eleven websites, and a quote form that estimators dreaded. I rebuilt the capabilities story around what a procurement engineer actually types into a search bar, and turned the RFQ from a form into the start of a conversation.
