Hi, I’m Kevan! Throughout my 10+ year career in design, colleagues have complimented my unwavering focus on users and persistent push to do better. I enjoy designing, defining UX strategy, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and facilitating communication between stakeholders. My mission is to distill complex design problems into intuitive and meaningful experiences that enrich people’s understanding of themselves and the world that surrounds them.

When I’m not designing products, I enjoy music, oolong teas and serving my home chef experiments to my 9-year old twin boys (usually unsuccessfully) in Oakland, California.
