Solving Problems

As a Product Manager and UI/UX Designer I enjoy devising creative solutions to complex problems.

Combining the Technical with the Creative

I leverage my experience as a creative UI/UX Designer with the technical skills of a Product Manager to improve clarity through communication, prioritize complex and competing needs, to deliver quality products to users and stakeholders.
