WHO I AM?

I’m a Multi-Discipline Design Director with 25+ years of strategic leadership spanning brand design, user experience, product design and cutting-edge Extended Reality (XR) design under my belt. I’m always learning something new and that fuels my ever changing design process, adapting to what ever role is needed. I’m also a proven leader in running design teams, product design and management, implementing scalable design systems, and helping to deliver measurable business impact with experience serving startups, agencies and Fortune 500 clients like H-E-B, HP and Dell. Above all, I LOVE solving problems with design thinking and a lot of heart.
