Mark is a Product Designer currently designing AI & Scalable Financial Solutions at Goldman Sachs.

I'm a product designer who believes the best design is invisible — intuitive, efficient, and purpose-driven. I focus on solutions that reduce friction and elevate user performance.

With over 10 years in product design and a decade in finance, I've developed high-impact tools for investors, analysts, and executives. My work is user-centered, fast to value, and enterprise-ready from day one.

I specialize in scaling design systems, translating complexity into clarity, and aligning interface decisions with product strategy. I collaborate closely with engineering and prioritize precision to help teams ship with confidence.

Deep expertise in Figma and systems thinking. I thrive in collaborative environments — from prototyping and critique to refining interaction details. I'm committed to building impactful products and elevating team practice.

I design with implementation in mind — from shared tokens to real-data prototypes. My files are production-aware, interaction-complete, and built to reduce ambiguity across the build process.

I design for clarity and speed — enabling users to move with confidence and teams to execute without friction. From exploration to delivery, I partner closely to test, align, and ship quality outcomes.

Where My Focus Is...

At Goldman Sachs Marquee, I lead the design integration of AI into Marquee's data analytics suite and I'm the designer on two flagship products PlotTool Pro & MarketView.

Before Now...

My diverse background in Financial Services, AdTech, and Real Estate Data Platforms allows me to translate complex functionalities into intuitive interfaces.

Before Design...

Before becoming a Product Designer, I accumulated a decade of experience in Financial Services at Bank of New York Mellon and Amundi.

Life Before Design...

A journey of reinvention—from financial ops to designing AI-powered tools at Goldman Sachs. Along the way, I became a dad (twice), moved across the world, and taught myself design late at night. Every milestone shaped how I think, lead, and create.

PlotTool Pro

I led the design integration of AI into our data analytics suite, shaping the vision, interaction model, and delivery of an internal beta.

Framing the Opportunity

  • Identified key user pain points across MarketView and Plottool where AI could enhance productivity—especially around data discovery, chart generation, and insight summarization.
  • Partnered with product and engineering leads to define the problem space and set initial objectives for an AI assistant.

Collaborating with AI Engineering

  • Ran weekly working sessions with AI engineers to map model capabilities to user workflows.
  • Designed interaction patterns that aligned with the technical constraints of LLMs while keeping the UX intuitive and responsive (e.g., error states, loading behavior, fallback messages).
  • Created prototypes in Figma to test multi-turn conversations and dynamic visualization generation, refining prompts through hands-on testing.

Stakeholder Alignment

  • Presented early concepts and user flows to managing directors and leadership across Marquee.
  • Used lightweight storyboards and user journeys to communicate the AI experience and clarify how it fits into the broader analytics workflow.
  • Incorporated stakeholder feedback to prioritize a scoped-down MVP that balanced ambition with feasibility.

Shipping the Beta

  • Delivered a working internal beta, enabling users to:
  • Ask questions in natural language.
  • Generate visualizations directly from AI prompts.
  • Edit outputs and iterate in-place for faster workflows.
  • Focused on simplicity and trust—clean layout, clear model response areas, and inline edit capabilities.

Post-Launch

  • Collected usage feedback and ran internal demos to refine the UI and improve handoff between AI-generated insights and user-owned dashboards.
  • Defined a feedback loop between design, engineering, and product to scale the feature across additional tools within Marquee.

PlotTool Pro

Over the past year, I focused on two flagship platforms at Goldman Sachs — PlotTool Pro and MarketView — driving key initiatives that supported collaboration, data accessibility, and scalable product growth.

PlotTool Pro

  • Led the design of Control Groups, a feature enabling users to create reusable, permissioned sets of data.
  • Helped teams align on shared datasets, accelerating data visualization workflows.
  • Supported the broader business goal of increasing user adoption and revenue through more efficient team-based analysis.

MarketView

  • Post-launch, focused on scaling the product with new features and iterative UX enhancements.
  • Sections for organizing content within dashboards.
  • Collections to group dashboards thematically.
  • An upcoming Pitch Deck Creation Tool for turning insights into presentations.

Launch

Design Systems

In 2023, the Plottool Pro team merged with a larger strategic team to create MarketView, Goldman Sachs' next-generation platform for viewing and synthesizing fragmented financial data.

What is MarketView?

  • MarketView is a unified, interactive platform that empowers professionals to:
  • Explore real-time market data, insights, and commentary.
  • Group and visualize content in customizable dashboards.
  • ollaborate with internal experts and authors.
  • Access tools like Marquee AI, Collections, and Presenter Mode to enrich decision-making.

Why It Matters

  • Before MarketView, users jumped between tools to find context, data, and expert insights. Now, everything is integrated:
  • Dashboards display curated, up-to-date widgets.
  • Sections organize themes clearly.
  • Collections allow deep dives across strategies and topics.
  • AI tools streamline exploration and ideation.
  • This reduces cognitive load and empowers users to see the full picture, fast.

Plottool Pro started as an internal power-user tool for building interactive market visualizations. Over time, it evolved into the core creation engine for MarketView.

  • Plottool Pro powers:
  • Widget creation
  • Visual storytelling
  • Parameter-based customization
  • Expert-led annotation
  • It gave MarketView its most critical feature: the ability to turn raw data into narratives—with the same speed and polish as an analyst.

Our Team: Collaboration at Scale

  • What made this successful was our team's ability to work across disciplines:
  • Design built reusable, minimal components with system scalability in mind.
  • Engineers created a high-performance platform that could handle millions of data points in real-time.
  • Product leads connected deeply with users to define the right workflows.
  • AI/ML and Marquee teams partnered with us to embed intelligence, not noise.
  • Together, we didn't just combine tools—we reimagined how financial professionals explore complex, fragmented information in one seamless space..
