Hi, I'm Josh
Hi, I'm Josh
My journey started 2 years ago when I worked alongside cross-functional in-house and agency teams across North America and Europe.
During this time, I helped research and design mission-driven technology and experiences where I quickly realized that I have a knack for connecting with people and a talent for strategic design and product strategy.
My upbringing near Philly pushed me to develop a strong work ethic with a passion for people. My goal is to honor my roots and build deep relationships through thoughtful experiences.
My curiosity and eagerness to learn have also been integral to my work, pushing me to understand the root causes of both user and business challenges.

Simbi
I work with Simbi to run their product design operations. Recently, I redesigned its second round MVP where my primary challenges were visual redesigns, usability upgrades, and brand activation in-app. Now, I am working on a fully responsive web-based version of the platform to take the learning experience to the next level.

When I’m not designing, I jump from hobby to hobby. Sometimes it’s related to design and sometimes not.
I love to cook. I’m part Italian which means I’m obligated to make a lot of pastas.
I go to the gym almost everyday and I love amateur bodybuilding.
I listen to psychology podcasts and read classic works.
I am learning to code and recently built an Open AI ChatGPT API in SwiftUI to create an AI-powered cooking assistant.
I’m in a cover band called “Out of Sight” and we just dropped our first rock cover of “believe” by Cher on Spotify!
