--- title: "About jshmllr.com" canonical: "https://jshmllr.com/about" --- # About jshmllr.com jshmllr.com (https://jshmllr.com) is the product-design practice based in Tennessee. This page is the canonical bio for the portfolio. Crafting intuitive interfaces always keeping the human-in-the-loop and transforming workflows to amplify user potential. ### Recent Experience Lately, I’ve been working independently as a product design consultant, helping early-stage startups and established orgs in healthcare, AI, and media. Clients include **are in the agentic world** where I’ve designed 0–1 interfaces, human-in-the-loop workflows, and early design systems to help teams move faster and scale smarter. Before that I led design efforts at [Prism.fm](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GflwYmU3Mn0), focusing on pushing the boundaries of user experience tackling ambiguous problems and honing in on clear, impactful solutions. Our mission was to redefine how venues, promoters, and agencies manage events and finance in the live music industry. My time at [Prism](https://www.prism.fm) began after their [Series A round of funding](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1674713/000167471321000001/xslFormDX01/primary_doc.xml) ; and the focus for design was ensuring our platform not only looked great, but served the users seamlessly; _and, most importantly working toward profitability_. I crafted projects across the full design spectrum—from uncovering insights and prototyping to final implementation—with an eye toward enhancing user engagement and business outcomes. Navigating Jira backlogs and working closely with engineers and stakeholders, ideas were translated into tangible results, delivering user-centric solutions that drove real value. #### Achievements During my time I helped unlock_ three key markets_ for the business that will lead to greater sales not only in total MRR/ARR for the company but also greater ACV. My time ended 9 months after the [2024 round of Series B funding](https://www.crunchbase.com/growth_insight/d83d683b-b472-40a4-80fd-49078e5ee8b7). ### Previously At **USA Today Network**, I was part of an agile innovation lab where I designed both audience-facing features and internal tools for 200+ newsrooms. Our work drove measurable increases in ad revenue and significantly reduced newsroom operational costs. #### Achievements ### Teaching and mentorship Additionally, I recently taught **agile software development** at local [Tennessee Tech University](https://youtu.be/yYw7ELBtIVk?si=pE7zt3KNW_KGIL4r&t=154), empowering students with the practical knowledge they need to succeed in today's fast-paced development world of computer science whilst designing and shipping a product MVP for real-world clients. When I’m not designing, you'll probably find me exploring [Tennessee’s stunning outdoors](https://www.instagram.com/jshmllr/). #### Thanks for stopping by! 🤙 - Want to chat?
