Philosophy & Values
Solve for the needs of the consumer as well as the business
Pairing business acumen and consumer empathy leads to predictable, sustainable growth and better results in general.
Diverse and inclusive teams do better work
Different perspectives unlock new ideas beyond established user research and design thinking.
Make things better, Make better things
I strive to create products, businesses, and services that are sustainable, accessible, and ethical.
Ensure things go from ‘slides to shelves’
Work seamlessly with cross-disciplines (design, production, marketing, and logistics) to ensure concepts get to market.
Invest in the best talent to retain the best talent
Talent is one of a company's most valuable assets. I enjoy creating training programs that advance career growth.
Take the work seriously, but have fun on the journey
At the end of any project, you must have at least three good stories to tell. Work as hard as possible, and celebrate the wins.
