Summary

He led design services and UX at Mendix for nearly a decade, bridging enterprise-grade app development practices with human-centered behavior design. At Hite Labs he combines process auditing, coaching, and custom AI development to deliver systems that prioritize people as much as metrics. Russell’s background in graphic design and early front-end/interactive work gives him a rare blend of visual craft and technical fluency that makes complex tools feel simple. He measures success by whether teams actually enjoy using the tools he builds, not just by efficiency gains. Based in Boston, he focuses on templated, scalable solutions that empower owners to reclaim time rather than simply automate away jobs.
