Nice to meet you!
Over the course of my career, I’ve helped global brands like Grammarly, Cisco Webex, Mixpanel, Urban Outfitters, Sumo Logic and the US Department of Defense take the gobbledygook out of complex ecosystems to empower customers with intuitive interfaces and services.
I partner with designers and product development teams to gather insights, prioritize opportunities, create inspiring strategic visions and bring ideas to life.
I also strive to make the industry better for the next generation of designers. I have mentored and managed product designers. And I have also transform processes to elevate craft and hiring that have led to diverse team compositions.
Off the screen, I am a Lindy Hopper and African American Jazz dancer and performer.
The Lindy Hop is an African-American social dance that was developed in Harlem, New York City, in the 1920s and 1930s and originally evolved with the jazz music of that time. It was very popular during the Swing era of the late 1930s and early 1940s. Lindy Hop grew from the Charleston and Breakaway and incorporate jazz and tap rhythms. It is a Street and Club partnered dance and is a member of the swing dance family.
