Design from the Ask to the Experience

Design today goes beyond UX. It touches everything from advocacy and alignment to accessibility and authentic experiences. In a world where mockups can be automated, it's leadership, clarity, and heart that set products apart.

Here are the traits I bring to every project and every team:

Adaptability

I listen deeply, adjust quickly, and thrive within shifting constraints.

Boldness

I challenge assumptions, embrace new ideas, and push teams toward excellence.

Inclusivity

I design with empathy, ensuring experiences are accessible and welcoming to all.

Articulation

I bring clarity to collaboration, helping teams move forward with shared understanding.

Curiosity

I explore relentlessly, always seeking better ways to solve problems and create value.

Resilience

I navigate ambiguity, learn from setbacks, and persist toward meaningful outcomes.

Empowering others from the beginning

Since age 13, I've been sharing complex ideas simply creating over 500+ videos on UX, design, and tech workflows. Today, I bring that same spirit into leading global teams of designers, PMs, developers, and stakeholders.
