When it comes to design, I usually look for consistency, identifying patterns, or some sort of scaleable way to solve to a design problem. I don't mind working with ambiguity or some unknowns, and like aligning on a solution together with a team. My initial step with most design work is to create a baseline concept that my team and I can validate and iterate from. I like a casual team culture and enjoy working with others but like to balance that with working on my own.
