I lead design teams to help them reach their highest potential.
Former Design Director at LinkedIn and founder of Technically Speaking, where I inspire the next generation of product leaders. I'm currently on a global creative sabbatical.
The experiences we deliver are an image of the culture of an organization. If you want to deliver something of quality that can make a positive impact on people than its important that its reflected in you actions, values, and work ethic.
