I'm a product designer and researcher living in Toronto, Canada. I've been interested in the interplay between human behaviour and design for as long as I can remember. I have 12 years of experience as a product designer, and 5 years as a people leader. Through that I’ve developed expertise in product research, service design, product thinking and launching 0-1 initiatives. I’ve led design for clients in many different industries, including the financial sector, healthcare and e-commerce space. Most recently I managed a remote team of designers at Shopify through the successful launch of the native B2B app Shopify Collective. I was a social worker before I shifted careers into design, so coaching and mentorship is near and dear to my heart. I'm happy to help however I can.

- User Experience
I have 10 years of experience using both Visual and User Experience Design to make beautiful, intuitive products that help customers and businesses reach their goals. For 4 years, I created branding, packaging, and point-of-sale materials while learning about the role that design plays in helping a company create a cohesive identity and experience for its customers. For the last 6 years, I’ve built upon those design skills to understand how to better facilitate the interactions between people and the digital products they use. My approach to design utilizes user research, prototyping, usability testing, frequent iteration, and a collaboration not only with engineering and product teams, but with all those departments whose expertise contributes to a more well-rounded understanding of both business and user goals in order to create the best possible user experience.
