Information
Over the last two decades, I’ve designed everything from websites, apps, installations, and design systems to conferences, keynotes, swag, office fitouts, posters, billboards, advertising campaigns, logos, and brands — both working hands-on and directing teams.
I did most of this work as part of inhouse creative teams at startups, or for clients while working at design agencies. I’ve had the pleasure of working with amazingly talented folks and I could not have done any of this without them.
I take great pride in supporting multidisciplinary teams to do their best work with an empathetic and encouraging leadership style.
I’m experienced in the following areas of design and team management:
- — Visual design, art direction, and typography
- — Branding, identity design, and design systems
- — Advertising, marketing, and growth experimentation
- — User research, usability testing, and prototyping
- — Managing multidisciplinary teams and projects
- — Leading design ideation and the creative process
- — Front-end engineering support and collaboration
- — Shipping and refining quality user experiences
