Jill is designing for people and the AI agents beside them.

  • I design the team, not just the screens.
  • I think a human should approve every change an agent makes.
  • I spent ten years in financial services, where a wrong answer costs someone money.
  • Every trip becomes a talk.
  • AI first. Human, always.

                  What I'm looking for

                  Principal product design roles on teams building with AI, where people still make the final call.

                  Case studies

                  Designing AI products people can trust.

                  Each case study covers the product and the AI agents behind it: what I designed, where a human stays in the loop, and what it shows. Enterprise work in financial services is under NDA; I walk hiring teams through it on request.

                  Speaking

                  Talks & workshops.

                  Five talks on human-centered AI, accessibility and designing through change. Each one runs as a keynote or a hands-on workshop, in person or online.
