👋🏼 Howdy. Thanks for stopping by.
I'm a Senior Product Lead at Design Like You Mean It, where I wear both product and design hats.
Mainly, I focus on product discovery, strategy, and helping clients get super user-curious.
Previously at CVS/Aetna and SonderMind

Nothing in isolation
The system works best if all the parts work together and contribute to the whole. Seek to understand how each part affects each other to build usable and scalable solutions.
🤝
Bring 'em along
Stakeholders, teammates, users–you gotta bring 'em along with you. Communicate early and often. Move forward together with shared understanding. This builds inclusivity into your solution, will instill trust, and increase your efficiency.

Keep it simple, sis.
The simplest solution to the problem is usually the best one. Our world is already complex enough, so lean into predictability and clarity and away from bells and whistles that just exist to make noise.

You are not your user. (!!!)
Your users are not a monolith. Your own thoughts and feelings (or those of your opinionated neighbor, best friend, etc.) are just one data point in the sea of your diverse target audience. Your incorrect assumptions can tank your solution.
