Visualizing Patient Data for Efficient and Effective Care Plan Decision Making

For VEHR Technologies, 2024


I partnered with a visionary clinician to lead design that mapped clinical mental models into interface logic - giving clinicians intuitive workflows and engineers a clear blueprint to build from.


The resulting visualization was a novel approach to longitudinal patient timelines; due to its proprietary value, it remains under NDA.

Redesigning a Patient Portal and Adding Critical Features

For Ascension Health and Dell Children's, 2024


The original portal was non-compliant with Medicaid guidelines and lacked mobile usability. I partnered with engineering and product to redesign it from the ground up, introducing a responsive interface, modern design system, and new features to meet compliance: all delivered on a tight deadline with full stakeholder buy-in.

Reducing Refill Times While Enhancing Patient Oversight

For Fresenius Medical Care, 2023


I uncovered complex backend workflows and key pain points nurses faced, then streamlined a manual refill process into a faster, safer digital experience with enhanced patient oversight, cutting refill time by 70% across 2,800+ locations.

Empowering Clinicians to Untangle the Problem List

For The Department of Defense via KOA IT


Problem Lists are the problem of all EMRs, as one clinical informaticist put it. I designed and prototyped a reconciliation workflow that helps clinicians transform overwhelming, disorganized lists into a clear, actionable representation of a patient’s clinical picture - supporting better decision-making and care planning.

Helping Seniors on Find a Medicare Part D Plan

For Picwell, acquired by Jellyvision


Seniors navigating Medicare Part D face a complex, overwhelming process—made harder by app conventions that don’t align with their mental models, vision needs, or dexterity. I designed a plan selection app that simplified decision-making through user-centered flows, validated research, and close collaboration with Picwell’s product and engineering teams.

About me

Hi, I'm David!
I'm a designer and human factors engineer driven by a passion for creating healthcare experiences that truly help people. With over a decade of experience partnering with startups, hospitals, and innovative healthcare organizations, I specialize in crafting intuitive tools that empower clinicians, support patients, and make complex medical information clear and accessible.

Why healthcare?
Simply put: I wouldn't be here without it. My personal experiences with the healthcare system have deeply shaped my perspective, fueling my commitment to making it better for everyone. Every project I take on is guided by empathy, thoughtful design, and the belief that great care can transform lives.

When I'm not immersed in designing and prototyping, you might find me exploring new cities, playing the piano pretty horribly, or enjoying lots and lots of coffee.

Let's connect!

Thanks for stopping by! I genuinely love chatting about ides of most kinds.
