Since my career started in 2011, I’ve been on a quest to learn the entire process.

I’m a design generalist who has worked as a product designer, a head of design, and a designer founder at three startups, all of which have become profitable.

My education was in graphic design, but I quickly started working on tech innovation teams in Austin, Texas. Since 2016, I’ve been using my strategic design skills to work in the strategic problem space of adult education.

In my work, I continually seek ways to bridge design and business with an ever-growing set of strategic skills. I’ve led international design teams, started a design school, and helped clients design UX, product, business, and engineering strategies.

I enjoy working in innovative, international environments where I can learn and be challenged. I’m a big reader, always looking for ways to turn my interests into projects through writing, storytelling, and workshops. In my spare time, I teach designers innovation and strategy skills at The Fountain Institute or mentor design teams like LeanIX.

In my past role as Head of Design for CareerFoundry, I helped thousands of people get their first UX/UI design job. I helped design their learning platform, built the design team from scratch, and scaled the company to profitability in 2019. I also represented the company by holding workshops for corporate clients like Lufthansa.

One of the ways that I give back to the design community is through free design resources on the Fountain Institute’s website. I share almost all of the resources that I develop from teaching so that designers can become more strategic.

I’m always looking for new projects and teams where I can make an impact with my strategic design and coaching skills.
