I'm a Product Design Leader with 20 years of experience across agencies, consultancies, and in-house SaaS companies. I'm passionate about fostering collaborative relationships across product teams and mentoring designers. My professional value system is based on being collaborative, transparent, having a hard work ethic, and a healthy dose of humor.
Slowing down and working with my hands continues to be my creative outlet...you'll find me picking up a new craft to dabble in or spending time outside in my garden. Traveling solo inspires me and helps make sure I'm connected to myself. I challenge myself to live my life without having to say: "I wish I would have done that sooner."
