20+ Years of Transforming Complexity into Clarity.

 

As a Senior UX Design Leader, I bring measurable business impact  by delivering scalable solutions that improve adoption, efficiency, and customer satisfaction across enterprise, healthcare, retail, and technology. I specialize in transforming complex challenges into human-centered solutions. Known for building design systems, shaping processes, and aligning cross-functional teams, I foster design maturity across organizations.

Design Work

Geyser Data Design System

Built and scaled a comprehensive Figma design system from scratch during a major product transition, driving faster iterations and more efficient developer handoffs. As the sole UX designer, I established design consistency across the archival data storage platform, helping the team deliver more quickly and contributing to winning new customers.

SAP Retail Activity Optimization (RAO) Innovation Project

Led UX research and design in a cross-functional squad to innovate for consumer product goods customers. By leveraging data-driven insights, we optimized customer activities to increase revenues and efficiencies with up to 80% time savings, validating new product concepts that addressed real business needs.

XD-PM Process Improvement

Spearheaded process improvement between Experience Design and Product Management teams. The result was the creation of a new, formal framework that provided greater visibility into the XD team's workload, improved capacity planning, and ultimately increased collaboration and reduced friction with our product management counterparts.

About Me

Full of energy, I motivate and inspire all the teams I work with across the organization to collaborate and engage in our design process. Including everyone in the process is the best way to evangelize UX. I love sharing my knowledge to help others grow, learn and build their skills.

Creativity is not a switch I can turn off. I find myself innovating when going for runs or hanging out with friends. I’m always thinking of ways to improve a design or a process, whether it’s for work, or personal app ideas, or for institutions that I am a board member of.

I am also driven to improve myself. I love being part of active Orange County and San Diego UX communities. I love learning new methodologies by reading, attending conferences or workshops, and leveling up my UX toolkit with the latest apps and AI tools.

I’ve been helping people and companies in a UX capacity for twenty years both locally and globally.

Let’s work together!
