20+ years of design experience have shaped my career, from independent contributor to leader across diverse industries like finance, gaming, and digital agencies. My journey began in 2000 with a focus on visual design, and I've had the privilege to work with renowned companies like NBC, A&E, Jaguar, Starwood, WWE, Capital One, ooVoo, Frito Lay, and Atari.

Continuous learning and development have been my constant companions, ensuring my design process remains rooted in customer-centricity. In my most recent role as Director of Design Practice at Capital One, I upheld critical standards, implemented their human-centered design process, ensured UX quality, and promoted best practices across various disciplines.

Beyond leadership skills, I offer a unique blend of strategic vision and hands-on expertise. My early career as a visual designer ignited my passion for transforming product experiences. This, combined with my leadership experience, equips me to make impactful contributions on multiple levels: guiding teams towards strategic goals, fostering a thriving design culture, and empowering others through expertise and mentorship.
