My approach blends design thinking, systems thinking, empathy, technology, and business strategy. With a multidisciplinary background in HCI, interaction design, project management, and law, I connect the dots between people, data, and design. I’m skilled at leading cross-functional teams, turning complexity, and delivering high-impact work—fast, but thoughtfully. Collaboration is central to how I work. I partner closely with PMs, engineers, data scientists, researchers, and executives to align on vision, shape roadmaps, and ensure what we ship is both feasible and valuable. Whether I’m mentoring designers 1:1 or facilitating global workshops, I lead with intent, clarity, curiosity, and care.

Let’s connect via DM if you’re building in this space! Beyond Design: Outside of work, I’m a coffee-loving, lifelong learner, UX mentor, content creator, and traveler. I share insights on design, AI, strategy, and career growth through writing, talks, and video, and I’m currently authoring a book on AI strategy for UX and product leaders. Curiosity fuels me—I’m always looking for new ways to connect ideas, grow as a leader, and push the boundaries of thoughtful, human-centered design.
