About

I bring over 15 years of product design experience across leadership and senior IC roles, including principal designer and head of design positions. I specialize in building user-centered experiences, scaling design systems, leading and mentoring design teams, and driving strategic outcomes for both products and businesses.

Throughout my career, I’ve led high-impact mobile and web design initiatives, developed scalable and accessible component libraries, and shaped design strategies for growth-stage and enterprise products. My experience includes working with companies like Slack, Rivian, and Panobi, where I most recently served as Head of Design. At Panobi, I was responsible for setting the overall design vision, shaping the product experience, and partnering closely with cross-functional leadership to evolve both the product and the brand.

I’m passionate about growing and mentoring design teams, fostering inclusive design cultures, streamlining operations, and establishing equitable hiring practices. In parallel, I have deep, hands-on expertise in design systems, product design strategy, accessibility, prototyping, user research and testing, and information architecture—skills I’ve directly applied throughout my career to deliver impactful user experiences.

Beyond my hands-on work, I’m an active mentor and advocate in the tech community. I hold three design patents and have contributed to educational initiatives such as developing curriculum at BrainStation. In the past, I have delivered talks for Women in Design initiatives and as an alumni speaker for Simon Fraser University. I’m passionate about growing the next generation of designers and creating environments where design can drive meaningful impact.
