About me
I am a hands-on Digital Product Design leader and Creative Director with expertise across product design, UX, UI, and brand systems. My approach to design is simple and pragmatic, grounded in a balanced understanding of business goals, audience needs, and love for expertly crafted UI and design systems. My hybrid expertise incorporates a diverse range of skills and creative disciplines, covering strategic guidance to creative execution including interface design, user experience design, user research, prototyping and front-end development, brand development. Having worked in-house, agency-side, and independently with start-ups, I’m comfortable working with large and small cross-functional teams of designers, engineers, strategists, researchers, and more. I have experience being a leader and strategic partner to high-functioning design teams across local and global time zones, with responsibilities including hiring, managing, mentoring, and new business development.
