Hello!

I am a Design Leader with 12 years of experience driving human-centered design across SaaS, consumer products, and internal tools. As a player coach, I have led global, cross-functional teams of designers, researchers, and content strategists.

I specialize in building design cultures that focuses on craft and can confidently navigate both ambiguity and focused problem-solving, with a strong emphasis on uncovering root causes.

As a collaborative partner and experienced facilitator, I use service design methods and workshops to foster safe spaces for candid dialogue and meaningful collaboration.
