I’m an experienced and empathetic manager who has a broad toolset mentoring and leading teams. I’m an active listener who can anticipate and provide focused support. I aim to nurture and inspire creative talent and ensure that teams work seamlessly together. I love creative storytelling and understand the business reality and creative possibilities at the same time. My work is focused on crafting strategic UX vision and implementing best practices and design systems across products and services. I enjoy partnering with cross-functional teams and leading highly collaborative, multidisciplinary projects to ensure business impact, as well as, world-class design solutions for the people that use the products daily. I’m obsessed with beautifully functional typography, simplicity, cohesive design systems powered by design tokens, and love reading research about emerging markets and diverse cultures.
