Designing incredible experiences is best done with an incredible group of people.
Great products come from great teams. I've spent 15+ years building design organizations at companies like Wealthsimple, Shopify, and Huge Inc., learning that leadership is about enabling others to do their best work. I maintain a high bar for craft and execution while creating the culture, operations, and mentorship that help designers grow and ship exceptional experiences.
