What I owned

Product design

Led design across core customer-intelligence, CRM, guest management, waitlist, reservation, and restaurant operations workflows.

Design system

Helped shape the product UI from early-stage startup surfaces into a more complete SaaS product system.

Brand and product expression

Worked across product, brand, web, sales, and customer-facing materials as Wisely matured from startup to acquisition.

Post-acquisition

Joined Olo after the Wisely acquisition and continued product design work across restaurant technology, customer intelligence, and engagement surfaces.

What it does

Wisely helps restaurant brands understand and act on customer data across guest interactions. The platform connects customer intelligence with operations, marketing, reservations, waitlist, sentiment, and customer data workflows.

Why it matters

Wisely is the proof that my work is not only visual. It shows long-term product ownership inside a real SaaS company: complex workflows, enterprise customers, data-heavy interfaces, design systems, product-market growth, and acquisition-level company outcome.
