About

I’m a Senior UX/Product Designer with experience working individually and in teams. I have used both Agile and Lean methodologies, responding to dynamic tasking and in hybrid environments. I’m hands-on, with experience leading on all aspects of the project. I oversee the full project life cycle, I design for an omnichannel experience, and cater to an extensive range of demographics and use cases. With experience as a design lead for both B2B and B2C projects.


My practice is built around meeting business goals. I separate the user’s needs from their wants.  I have managed a broad range of stakeholders, from presenting to board executives, to external senior partners. I have a passion for mentoring designers, helping them grow and apply their UX and business skills within a company. I work collaboratively with many teams, including engineers, PM’s, accessibility, design systems, SEO, service design, and content designers, ensuring my solutions are data driven, customer centric and accessible.
