I’m a senior technology director with award-winning SaaS product experience.
I’m a problem solver. I use humanistic design thinking as a catalyst for change. I look to uncover latent needs, think big, then lead with iterative approaches to realize value.
I’m an experientially led product director. I have directed cross-functional teams of product managers, designers, engineers, testers, and business leaders for an enterprise, two software companies, and two consultancies.
My background is in UX design. I have a master’s degree and many years of experience designing user-centered solutions for winning brands in tech, retail, telco, textile, and financial services.
