A bit about me:
16 years of experience building products and design teams
Started at a design consultancy, owned projects at a startup, scaled operations at an an enterprise, and built a research and design team as a product design director
Deep care for the people I work with and the users I serve
All about that cross-functional collaboration
Ongoing communication > handoffs
Got a hankerin' for design operations and pastries
If you'd like to talk more, drop an email. Thanks for taking a look!
