Case study coming soon
Led the redesign of a children’s Medicaid member portal, launching care team, ID card, and prior authorization tools for 40,000+ members in four months.
Case study coming soon
Led design of a medication refill workflow within clinic staff’s Salesforce application, replacing paper, fax, and phone follow-ups to make refills 70% faster across 2,800+ dialysis clinics.
Prototype
Partnered with a practicing clinician to design and prototype an AI-assisted clinical experience, making supporting patient data easy to verify without overwhelming the view.
Prototype
Partnered with the physician founder to bring patient history into a connected clinical timeline, supported by aligned data views and a component library built from scratch.
Workflow, usability, and accessibility reviews to uncover where people get stuck. You’ll get clear priorities and practical fixes, informed by research with the people using your product.
Ideal for
Teams improving an existing product or preparing for launch.
Turn a complex problem into a clear, usable experience, from early research to prototypes and developer handoff, with reusable components to support future growth.
Ideal for
Teams building something new or rethinking a core workflow.
Embedded senior product design for three to six months. I work alongside your product, engineering, and clinical partners to shape decisions and move the work through delivery.
Ideal for
Teams that need an experienced design partner without a full-time hire.
David didn’t just hand off designs—he stayed engaged through the pilot, tackled edge cases, and iterated until the solution worked in the real world, not just in Figma.

Included Health
I bring a human factors engineering perspective to healthcare design. I study how people understand information, make decisions, and complete tasks within the realities of care, then work with clinical and product teams to turn that understanding into accessible, usable experiences that remove barriers to delivering and receiving care.
Learn how clinicians, caregivers, and patients navigate care together. Explore their goals and the constraints they face to understand how design can help.
Map tasks, information, and relationships before shaping the interface. Account for handoffs, exceptions, and recovery when things go wrong.
Build prototypes and evaluate them with representative users. Observe comprehension, task completion, and confusion, then refine the design.
Partner with engineering and clinical teams through implementation. Review accessibility and interaction details, and use feedback from real-world use to guide improvements.

Photography helps me slow down and notice the quiet moments I might otherwise pass by. It’s a meditative practice for me, a way to be present and understand a place a little better.
