What makes it work

A breakdown of the choices that make this portfolio stand out.

1

Research-to-decision traceability

A case study ties a specific research finding directly to a prioritized feature, rather than just listing screens — signaling a designer who can justify decisions with evidence, not taste.

2

Named business outcome

His "Ad Strategies" case study states a 67%+ win rate and scale to 100k advertisers post-beta — a concrete number tied to a design change.

3

Cross-functional scope framing

Explicitly naming the challenge of aligning four partner teams across three platforms demonstrates the systems-thinking senior IC roles screen for.

4

Multi-format proof of shipped work

Linking to press coverage and the live product lets a reviewer verify the work actually shipped, instead of taking his word for it.

What Product Designers can take from this

Specific, actionable tips to apply to your own portfolio — no generic advice.

  • Anchor every feature decision to a specific research quote or data point.

  • When you can't share exact metrics, use bounded ranges — still concrete enough to be credible.

  • Name the number of teams/stakeholders you aligned when the hard part was organizational, not visual.

  • Link out to independent press or the live product as third-party proof your work shipped.
