I’ve never followed a straight line.
And that’s fine.
In fact it’s great! I’ve danced around many design-industry sub-genres in my career and have always had a lot of fun!
The variety and diversity of my experiences have helped me develop a uniquely holistic perspective on brands and a clear vision for excellent design solutions.
Win/Win!
I started out as an identity designer, for big companies such as Pfizer, American Express, and Delta Airlines. It set the foundation for how I view the relationship of design to branding. Eventually, I became a manager in this area with a focus on growing young talent.
I wanted to learn more about advertising and the luxury-goods industry, so I became an art director at Tiffany & Co, moving on to become a creative director of beauty and fragrance products at Estée Lauder.
Building my skills in digital design became a new goal, so I worked at a few digital agencies (AKQA, Organic, and MRM), where I managed teams. My background in strategy helped me gain more formal knowledge about user experience, leading to a Product Design Lead position at one of the OG fintechs, FIS Global.
Currently, I am a product designer at Wells Fargo, where I lead design for LifeSync, a feature in the Wells Fargo mobile app which helps customers plan and reach financial goals.
I 💜 organizations that prioritize growth and collaboration, and have high standards in visual and experience design.
If that speaks to you, let’s get in touch!
