I'm a dynamic design executive with 18 years of experience at the intersection of design, research, and emerging tech in high-growth B2B and B2C companies. I lead design teams in creating elegant, self-service product experiences for complex systems. Currently, I’m the Head of Design at JazzX AI, where we're reimagining enterprise UX through the lens of Generative AI technology. Our globally distributed design team is focused on designing seamless and useful integration of AI into users’ existing workflows, while paving the way for a more fluid experience and dynamic ecosystem of multi-agent human-AI collaboration. Before JazzX AI, I built and led the UX design and research organization at Ripple, a global fintech and blockchain leader, scaling design operations for Ripple's suite of payment products, as the company grew from 300 to over 1,000 employees. I lead with a bold creative vision, while pairing it with the necessary operational rigor to create business impact at scale. I spend a lot of time thinking about how to... - Embody authentic, resilient leadership while mentoring designers and researchers in fast-paced, engineering-driven environments - Embed creative design experimentation into agile, outcome-driven product teams - Build brand equity throughout a customer's entire end-to-end journey with a product - Leverage emerging technologies to break down traditional work silos, leading to the kind of trusting collaboration that makes work more satisfying and productive
