💻 I am a design lead, manager, and sometimes educator with 15 years experience across industries and disciplines. I am also a design systems person and advocate.
Recent Projects Include: Building/designing/writing a UIUX Curriculum, concept design for a next-gen learning platofrm, lead in creating two design systems, and directing design and strategy for B2B and B2C experiences.
I find my joy in strategy, 🧐️ vision 🕶️ and planning for implementation 🛠️ of projects. I aim to be a lead who knows how to do and learn as much as I can direct. I work with empathy for all and enjoy collaborating to create meaningful work. I also ❤️️ creating processes for efficient workflow and building bridges across teams.
Hi There!
My management style is someone who advocates for cross-team collaboration, can balance user and business goals to meet deadlines ⏱️, and has a people-first, trauma-informed leadership approach.
✨️ I currently serve on the AIGA NY Board of Directors, have worked with Asian Creative Foundation in community building, spoke at Girls Who Code, and may run into you at ITP Camp.
