Design across software, landscapes, and objects.


I’m Meghan, a Staff-level Product Designer based in New York City. I shape complex systems into intuitive, high-impact products, leading with systems thinking, craft, and cross-functional collaboration to bring clarity to ambiguous spaces.

I’ve recently designed tap-to-pay and identity verification solutions for public transit benefits, device troubleshooting for POS systems, and launched a new ebike mode — all projects requiring alignment across hardware, software, and service design. My background spans transportation, payments, service operations, and biotech. I thrive where design can directly reduce friction and improve trust at scale.

Outside of work, I bring the same curiosity and grit: I’ve turned a street into a public plaza, danced salsa across the country, and biked 200 miles from Miami to Key West.

Below are some teasers of my work, for full case studies please reach out.
