My Specializations
Product Design Direction
As a Director of Product Design, I guide the creation of intuitive, scalable, and user-centric solutions that drive business results. I manage the entire design process, from defining the strategic vision to delivering user-first experiences that align with our business goals. This work has led to a savings of over 5 million in development time and a 30% increase in product utilization.

I believe that effective design is rooted in data. I have hands-on experience in conducting, leading, and utilizing user research to inform business solutions. This research has included analytics, use cases, personas, journey mapping, interviews, and more. This research has lead to products increasing utilization by 30%.
