Background
I work with empathy. I promote and practice collaboration to create meaningful work for the user while also optimizing internal processes to create efficient work and information streams. I manage with a growth mindset and believe in ideas before technology. Most of the work you see here is a selection of projects I am most proud of in my 15+ year career.
In 2020, I pivoted to education. I first taught, then went behind the scenes to help build a bootcamp program for adult learners in UI/UX from the ground up. Since 2022, I act as an Associate Director for an EdTech company focused in cybersecurity, guiding the overall strategy of cross-team collaboration and projects while also contributing to day to day work.
The TL;DR
💻 I have 15+ years across industries and disciplines
🔍 I love end-to-end strategy & implementation of digital products
🗂️ I also work on design systems (I love process and organization!)
📓 I can pivot, build bridges, wear many hats, but can’t eat scallions.
