Deep water takes any shape.

UX designer and leader

15+ years in design, working on flight and mission systems, defense, enterprise data and other complex fields.

User researcher

Two years at Redis as a researcher taught me how much of the job is refining the questions.

Teacher of the craft

I head the Visual Design department at Studio 6B, and teach UX research at Tel Aviv University.

AI fluent

I work with AI across the whole chain — research synthesis, design, prototype, shipped code. Not as a party trick. It’s how this page got built.

Studio 0815

First employee → Department director

Nine years building a design organization for flight and mission systems in defense: Leading the design, the training program, the onboarding pipeline, the client strategy.

In defense software, “we’ll fix it next release” isn’t a plan.

Redis Research

Research that ships

At Redis, I built the research operating system: one protocol from intake to archive, a Critical User Journey program run across four journeys, a Voice-of-Customer program with its own dashboard, the console’s navigation rebuilt on card sorts and tree tests, and a churn survey that couldn’t count churn, rebuilt.

Two of them I built with AI: the dashboard, and — for migration, the hardest journey — an interactive map designed with Claude, built with Claude Code, deployed solo. The map is still in use by the people planning the roadmap. I teach the workflow now.

The collection

Miscellaneous works

Here is an anthology of projects I worked on over the years. Some are commissioned, and some are private “side quests”.

An essay in UX Collective, a daily podcast written, voiced and illustrated entirely by AI, an emoji sticker pack about poop, a year of covers for the Making History podcast, an album branded for the singer NoaBe, a McLuhan-inspired social-podcasting concept — and the hand-drawn user portraits that turn up all over the serious case studies.

Happy to meet you

I’m based in Tel Aviv. 15+ years in design, alongside research and teaching, and I still like the parts nobody puts on a slide.

At Studio 6B, a design academy, I head the Visual Design department — around twelve concurrent cohorts, roughly 180 students, and a team of instructors. I write the curriculum and I teach it. They learn to use AI without sounding like it — when to reach for it, when to leave it alone, and how to keep their own voice.

At Tel Aviv University’s Coller School of Management I co-lecture Interactive Experiences and Virtual Communities, a graduate course taught with Prof. Lior Zalmanson.

If you’ve got something good to build and decent people to build it with, I’d like to hear about it.
