About me
'm a design director and experience designer with an ardent love for strategy, mentorship and social good. With over a decade of experience at the intersection of advertising, marketing, and product I care deeply for shaping a brand's narrative and how that's expressed in crafting products. I'm comfortable in all forms of content creation to tap into the heartbeat of an organization and translate the "why" into a "what", meaningful design. I believe in empowering teams to do their best work by creating spaces that are open and honest. Specialties: Creative leadership, design management, product design, user experience design, content strategy, branding
