I enjoy examining how environments influence behaviors and shape relationships, and conversely, how relationships and behaviors create environments. I love building products that help change people’s lives for the better, and take complex processes and simplify them for millions of customers. Aligning and building consensus in cross-functional teams, mentoring, motivating, and developing designers. Guiding engineering, product, and executive teams on design principles and processes. Utilizing design as a strategic tool to drive requirements and direction. I see design and design thinking as ways to bridge differences and create new opportunities for growth and change.
