With a background in psychology and fine art, I bring a human-centered, systems-oriented perspective to complex product challenges—translating ambiguity into clear, effective solutions with artistic precision.
For over a decade, I’ve led cross-functional teams and partnered closely with engineers, product managers, and researchers to deliver high-impact, user-focused digital experiences. As Head of Design at Coalesce, I drive creative direction, mentor designers, and foster a culture of collaboration, clarity, and continuous improvement—ensuring design excellence is both strategic and meticulously executed.
Natural ability can help, but it’s consistent effort and follow-through that drive meaningful work. I believe in showing up, staying focused, and pushing ideas forward—especially when the path isn’t clear.
Lead by example
Good leadership isn’t about direction—it’s about action. I strive to set the tone through collaboration, empathy, and craft, creating an environment where people feel inspired to do their best work.
Collaboration drives innovation
The best ideas rarely come from one person. I believe in the power of diverse voices, shared goals, and open conversation to unlock unexpected, innovative solutions.
Simplicity clarifies complexity
Design should make the complex feel effortless. I aim to distill ideas down to their most essential form—clear, approachable, and purposeful.
Feedback is fuel
I see feedback as a tool for growth, not critique. Whether giving or receiving, I value open, honest conversations that strengthen both the work and the team behind it.
Always be learning
Curiosity keeps you evolving. I believe in always asking questions, seeking new perspectives, and learning from every project, person, and challenge I encounter.
