What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity, collaboration, and opportunities for professional growth.

I am a Lead UX Designer with over 17 years of experience across various industries, including healthcare, fintech, automotive, and energy systems. My expertise lies in crafting scalable design systems and leading cross-functional innovation, which has consistently driven measurable business impact and enhanced user satisfaction. I am passionate about creating inclusive experiences that not only delight users but also align with business objectives.

At athenaHealth, I led the UX for scalable healthcare tools utilized by over 100,000 professionals, significantly improving task efficiency and user satisfaction. My role involved conducting extensive user research, which directly influenced product direction and led to a remarkable increase in satisfaction scores. Previously, at Wells Fargo, I directed design strategies that resulted in substantial productivity gains and increased trading volumes, showcasing my ability to blend design with business acumen.

Throughout my career, I have been committed to mentoring design talent and fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation. I believe in the power of design thinking and have facilitated organization-wide workshops to elevate UX maturity. My goal is to continue pushing the boundaries of user experience design while contributing to a team that values creativity and inclusivity.
