About
For over 19 years I’ve reinvented myself in my career, learning different programming languages and skills. Transitioning from Graphic Design to Web Design, then to Web Development, and finally into User Experience. This background allows me to become a bridge between user & business needs, by adapting my analytical and creative mind into a hybrid role. I have managed multiple teams, mentored colleagues, and studied data & trends to follow the ever-changing ebb and flow of users. This affords me a unique perspective of user psychology, art aesthetics, usability, architecture, programming, and overall best practices. Let me utilize my experience and skills, work with / lead your team and lets push the envelope. Lets strive for the cutting edge, establish a strong brand, and build a great experience for the users.
