I am creative, driven and forward thinking professional with an entrepreneurial spirit and a knack for human psychology.
Specifically, I am proficient in user experience research and have a deep rooted passion for design. I am a strong visualizer and this skill lends its self well to big picture systems thinking from a macro level perspective.
I also love making connections among people and technology. A recipe for who I truly am involves a combination of my bold love for all things related to creativity, design and user experience, with my tenacious passion for people and technology. The married flavours of creativity, design, user experience, people and technology allow me to provide problem solving abilities that help me develop solutions to people's everyday problems.More...

I am a designer, a design & research leader, mentor & coach, with 20+ years of experience in a great range of products, industries and user circumstances: from eCommerce and social media, to consumer weather platforms, data analytics platforms, 2-sided marketplaces, tourism marketing and recruitment marketing.
To get the most from my design team, I always focus on:
* Creating and cultivating a culture that is transparent, collaborative and empowering. This goes beyond the design team and into the teams we partner with. We solicit and make use of feedback, we lead with our commitment to understanding and advocacy for the user and we aim to be a source of energy for the entire organization.
* Coaching and mentoring my designers on the craft and business of design, asking them to stretch and grow, helping them see their own paths with crisp clarity.
* Introducing and connecting impactful approaches to tackle the difficult human problems in front of us, learning from past efforts, uncovering insights through research and measurement.More...
