About
I'm a UX design and web ecosystem lead at Ubisoft, where I've spent the last 10 years designing and governing the digital experiences behind one of the world's largest gaming platforms — think global navigation, design systems, and product strategy across 100M+ annual users.
I didn't start in design though. I came up through web production — managing launches, wrangling content, coordinating across teams — before making the transition into UX. That path gave me something a lot of designers don't have: I actually understand how things get built, what producers and developers need, and how to get design work across the finish line in complex organizations.
But honestly, some of my most meaningful work has happened outside of Figma. I've run UX training programs, hosted conferences, and mentored designers from their very first internship through to senior roles. Helping someone click into their own potential is genuinely my favorite thing.
I'm a Nielsen Norman Group UX Masters Certified (UXMC) practitioner, which means I've gone deep on research, IA, and interaction design — but I'm equally at home talking career strategy, navigating workplace politics, or figuring out how to position yourself for the role you actually want (not just the one that's available).
I'd love to work with designers who are early-to-mid career and trying to figure out their direction, or experienced practitioners who feel stuck and want a thought partner. I have a particular soft spot for people who work in systems — design systems, ecosystems, DesignOps — and anyone trying to transition into more strategic roles.
Outside of work I co-lead a Women in Leadership ERG and hold a Women in Leadership certification from the University of San Francisco — so if you're a woman navigating a male-dominated tech environment, I've been in those rooms and I get it.
I'm from California, currently based in Orlando, I have ADHD, and I believe deeply in meeting people where they are.
