Focus







Leadership
I genuinely enjoy being a servant leader. Empowering talented people to feel connected, fostering inclusion and safety, and building a shared future are primary motivations for me.
Design
I am a tireless advocate for the business value, process, and utility of design. Working with teams on craft, storytelling, and user intent is still a large part of my leadership and delivery responsibilities.
Innovation
Challenging assumptions is a core trait of my work. I believe changing vantage, eliminating barriers, and keeping context are the keys to innovative products and services that deepen our connection to technology.
Research
To create products and services that deliver value, they must be anchored in user empathy. Utilizing data, and qualitative insights within an evidence-based approach are fundamental to every program I lead.
