SS Stosh Steward

Product designer · Web + mobile · Bothell, WA

I make complex products feel clear, useful, and human.

I’m Stanton “Stosh” Steward, a product-minded UX designer and builder. For twenty years at Bungie, I shaped player-facing experiences across Bungie.net, Destiny Companion, and Halo-era community systems.

How I work

From rough questions to shipped details.

01

Web design

Responsive product surfaces, content systems, component libraries, and implementation-minded visual polish.

02

UX design

Flows, information architecture, interaction models, account systems, and social experiences grounded in real constraints.

03

Wireframes

Fast, low-cost ways to make the problem visible, align teams, and test the shape of an experience before polish.

04

Prototyping

Clickable Figma and Axure prototypes, browser experiments, and working artifacts that help teams learn by using.

03

What collaborators say

“Stosh has become an important part of the Web Experiences team, consistently sharing solutions that benefit both our players’ experience and the team’s efficiency.”

About + experience

Designer, systems thinker, practical builder.

My work lives between product strategy and the details that make a product hold together: a clearer error, a stronger flow, a reusable component, a convincing prototype, or the last release check before players arrive.

I’ve worked across game-adjacent products, live-service platforms, community tools, mobile apps, and marketing systems, often moving between design and implementation to keep momentum.
