I am a senior digital product designer with fourteen years of experience in collaborating on large and complex digital products. Recently I have focused on UX, user research, design and art direction, design management and stakeholder liaison, mentoring, and initiating collaborative workshops concerning modular design principles and systems for web and native mobile apps.
I work part-time on three days a week—Monday, Thursday and Friday. I am also open to discussing job share roles.
