Sonos

I lead Hardware UX for the all-new Professional pillar at Sonos. We provide industry solutions at the intersection of software and hardware.

Professional audio hardware is a highly competitive and confidential business. I can't show anything I've been working on: it takes years to produce one hardware product. Please reach out with any questions. Here are some of the things I've been responsible for.

  • Led Hardware UX for the Sonos Professional pillar from inception to shipping the award winning Sonos Era 100 Pro.
  • Early stage design incubation of products in the professional space from zero to an actionable 4 year strategic roadmap in a highly collaborative and generative research-rich environment.
  • Developed and successfully pitched a clear vision behind what we build in Professional, for whom, why, and how it connects to Sonos’ core principles.
  • Led the cross-functional team from ambiguity to confidently validated products.
  • Formed a high functioning collaborative design team through mentorship, kindness and individual empowerment.
  • We invented new methods for customer characterization called “mindsets” and validated our concepts through co-creation with these users.
  • Experimentation and productization of new audio software applications with the hard core audiophile stakeholders.
  • Complex physical and Figma prototyping.
  • In this role, I’ve done a good deal of IC work.
