Senior Design Manager
About
I've spent over a decade turning complicated problems into clear, human experiences — across nonprofits, global brands, and high-growth startups.
At Bestow, I lead UX through real organizational change. My work goes beyond screens — I focus on building teams that trust each other, ask bold questions, and ship things that matter.
Lately I've been deeply energized by AI and what it unlocks for designers. Not just faster workflows, but a whole new way to collaborate, prototype, and push ideas further. Designers who embrace AI will shape the next generation of software.
When people are the focus, everyone wins. That's still the north star.
