I build design teams and products people use.
Design Director with 15 years leading cross-functional teams at Wayfair, TripAdvisor, and Jobcase. I turn ambiguous problems into validated products — and build the design cultures that sustain them.
Currently open to Head of Design and Director of Design roles.

Where I create value
I lead with research—combining qualitative and quantitative insight with AI-driven workflows to shape and validate MVPs that resonate with real users.
I’m driven by creating meaningful impact—using research, data, and AI to design experiences that improve people’s lives while aligning user needs with business outcomes.
