About Me
Leading Design in Human Centered Systems:
Mobile, XR, & AI
I’m Michael Brenner, an AI Interaction Designer working on multimodal and trust-critical systems specializing in immersive systems and AI-enabled interfaces. My work focuses on the core challenge of the next era of software: verifiability at scale. As AI moves from simple prompts to autonomous workflows, I design the systems where humans can understand, trust, and intervene. I bridge the gap between non-deterministic AI reasoning and deterministic interface logic.
I’ve led end-to-end design for AI-driven products across healthcare, education, and enterprise environments, working from early concept through full-scale deployment.
I work at the boundary between design, engineering, and governance — shaping how AI capabilities become reliable product systems. This includes defining interaction contracts, aligning model behavior with interface logic, and helping teams make architectural decisions about trust, oversight, and deployment readiness.
I operate at the intersection of product strategy and regulatory rigor, collaborating with engineers to bring ambitious ideas into responsible, real-world driven products.


My Mission
I believe good design reduces friction, builds understanding, and earns trust—especially as technology becomes more powerful and abstract.
Whether designing a mobile health experience, an AI-driven learning system, or an immersive XR environment, my goal is to simplify complexity without oversimplifying meaning. I focus on clarity, accessibility, and ethical design decisions that scale.

What I do
Product & UX Design
Research, system framing, interaction design, prototyping, and production-ready UI
Immersive & Spatial Design
AR/VR experiences, XR simulations, multimodal interaction (voice, gesture, spatial UI)
AI-Enabled Interfaces
Human-centered design for conversational systems, decision support, and adaptive experiences
Mobile Experiences
iOS and Android design, rapid prototyping, usability testing, and iteration

Design Approach
01
Understand the System
User needs, technical constraints, organizational goals, and real-world context
02
Design the Experience
Translate complexity into clear flows, interactions, and mental models
03
Iterate with Feedback
Test, refine, and validate across users, data, and edge cases
04
Deliver with Intent
Launch designs that are usable, scalable, and responsibly built
