User Experience Designer

I am a human-centered design and engineering leader and advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion across digital platforms. As a mentor in the tech industry, I am a strong advocate for a human-centered design approach and promote equity, inclusivity, and diversity across digital platforms. With over 20 years of experience, I have led teams consisting of 30+ designers, engineers, and products across various domains and organization sizes. I have mentored designers and engineers, I work with to advance their skill growth and strategic development using a problem-led strategy. Additionally, I guide and encourage individuals to consider the various dimensions of human identity to support diversity, equity, and inclusion. 

I have a record of guiding teams to take products from conception to market delivery. Amongst the companies and through design agencies, I drove digital experience design (DXD) that supported their digital transformations to include human-centric product development life cycles. These companies include Intuit (TurboTax - US), Google (US - IOT agency), IKEA (INGKA - Sweden), VirBela (Metaverse - US), and Interpreta (McKesson + Centene - US), TIBCO - (US - agency), to name a few.
 
As a mentor and a tech career coach, I emphasize the significance of creating a culture of belonging. This starts by encouraging open dialogue and ensuring that everyone's voice is heard. I firmly believe that by nurturing a collaborative and inclusive environment, we unlock the full potential of our team members, the hidden gems of talent within each other and inspire groundbreaking innovation in our digital products. When we champion the principles of belonging in our personal and professional growth journey, we ensure that our solutions resonate with a diverse range of users, and we see our human growth within ourselves. This results in building experiences that are not only impactful but also inclusive, relatable, and memorable.
