Frequently Asked Questions

What is your design superpower?

Design sprints and user testing sessions, among other things, are some of my superpowers as a designer. I can bring together diverse teams and get valuable feedback from users using these workshops. With my facilitation skills, I can inspire collaboration and drive imact.

How do you approach leading and mentoring designers on your team?

I strongly believe mentoring is an vital part of my role. I work hard to create an environment which is supportive and encouraging to others so that they can grow and develop their skills in a positive manner, as well as always remain inspired.

Can you provide examples of how you have effectively managed multiple projects and teams simultaneously?

It is my responsibility to manage up to four client teams as well as to lead internal design practices. I work with a team of two to three designers to collaborate with internal client teams to develop exceptional design solutions that meet the specific needs of the clients. Throughout my career, I have had success leading and motivating teams to achieve outstanding results while also remaining aware of the business goals and constraints of a project.

How do you ensure that your team is working efficiently and effectively, and that projects stay on track?

As a design leader, I'm passionate about building frameworks and teaching a modular and scrappy approach to problem-solving. My focus is on creating systems that can be used separately or together as a cohesive design ecosystem, enabling teams to deliver impactful outcomes.
