Innovation Leader.

Product Strategist.

Problem Solver.

I specialize in building new teams and scaling existing teams.  I love creating the space for individuals to do what they do best by creating a clear vision, strategic growth strategies, and operational excellence. 

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I've spent the last 18 years focused on user-centered experience design, innovation work, digital product design, and business management. I've worked with start-ups to Fortune 500 companies helping them understand their challenges, uncover opportunities, and consider how to bring together the combination of technology, business strategy, and design to develop successful paths forward.

 

I've built and run innovation centers and design studios for some of the largest companies in the world and have had several of my own companies.  I'm passionate about providing opportunities for learning and growth in others and dedicate my time as a board member for TXRX Labs a non-profit makerspace and prototyping firm, youth entrepreneurship through G-Unity Business Labs, and economic equity as a member to the GHP Upskill Council.
