About

When you work with people of quality, you will have quality results.

Passionate, Curious, Socially Conscious, Community Oriented Designer

I'm a design professional with a background in the visual arts and 15+ years of experience in tech in the following areas: UX design, product thinking and strategy; project management, and IT consulting.

I seek fresh perspectives, push boundaries and continually evolve my skills and design thinking to create meaningful experiences and products. 

My goal is to do good work that has a positive impact.

Manifesto

Just say Yes! Yes is a philosophy, a way of being, it is part of my genetic code. Yes allows me to discover… possibilities. Yes explores catacombs; examines ideas, changes perspectives, consider alternatives, creates ah-ha moments in search of clarity. Yes is not safe. It’s not blindly following fools. It’s not kissing up. Yes simply opens the door so we can take risks and discover new pathways of solution.

Collaboration lights me up, but I am equally comfortable taking ownership of a project and working as an individual contributor. I have a proven track record of producing deliverables on time and on budget, while having the flexibility, creativity and the good humor required to be a good collaborator and team member.

Integrity is a main driver. If I say I’m going to do something, I do. I believe in follow through, continual improvement, and taking actions that leave things better than I found them.

Diverse experiences have shaped me and given me the capability to address problems head-on with a positive, can-do attitude to find the right solution. I'm an artist, an author, an entrepreneur, a builder, a director, an actress, a climber, a volunteer, a traveler, a kite boarder, and I love hosting dinner parties.

My Clifton Strength Results

Something fun to note, I recently took the Clifton Strengths Finder 2.0 test. My results: Strategic, Ideation, Connectedness, Relator, and Futuristic. This is so me! Excited to apply my strengths to your design or idea.
