What I Bring to the Team
Systems Thinking
I specialize in the hard stuff — dashboards, admin tools, complex flows, and the edge cases most designers skip.
Alignment
I help product, engineering, and business teams get on the same page early so we can move faster with fewer surprises later.
Real-World Execution
I design for real constraints and real tradeoffs, balancing what users need with what the business actually requires to ship.
Problem Framing
I turn messy requirements, competing priorities, and incomplete information into a clear direction teams can execute against.

About Me
I’m Zach — Founding Designer at Praxis Sports, where I’m shaping the product experience across mobile and web. Before that, I spent several years at Beyond and Overstock designing for millions of users across mobile and ecommerce.
Outside of work, I’m usually reading about something completely unrelated to my job, starting a new creative project, or building some weird little app because I got annoyed doing something around the house once. I tend to follow ideas wherever they go, which means there’s usually a side project, prototype, or story idea floating around somewhere.
I’m also a big gamer and movie person, and honestly, a lot of how I think about pacing, systems, feedback, and experience design probably comes from those worlds as much as traditional UX.
Most importantly, I’ve got two kids under five who keep me pretty honest about what actually matters. We spend a lot of time at farmer’s markets, trying new restaurants, and catching Spokane Velocity games.
