Hey, I'm Devan.

I'm a product design director, who thinks a whole lot about people.

I'm currently a Design Director at JPMorgan Chase & Co. I’ve worked in user experience/product design for over 10 years and I've learned a lot about people, business, design, and how closely intertwined the three are. My biggest joy comes from growing and managing teams that support and make each other better everyday.

I believe that in order for a company to have exceptional design it needs to be embedded at every level and direction. I'm a designer, sure, but I think with that title comes the responsibility of teaching people around us to think like designers, too (using empathy to gain context, taking the time to understand the actual problem before jumping to solutions, collaborating and iterating). I also think it's our job to be conscious of how our work impacts our future.

We're all designers, some of us just forgot along the way.
