commitment to impact.

About Me

For over 10 years, I’ve been building and leading strategic design teams to create impactful digital experiences in the worlds of sports, fashion, finance and entertainment.

My work merges experience design, user research, design thinking, product strategy and emerging technology to architect and deliver products that supercharge growth for brands and businesses.

But great design takes a village, and sometimes it’s the soft skills that make magic happen. As a strategic leader, I take pride in my responsibility to mentor and create structure for teams to do great work, as well as my ability to build cross-team consensus and effectively communicate and align with business leaders at every level.
