I’m a product design and innovation leader who helps designers, product leaders, founders, and emerging executives turn complexity into clarity—and ideas into products people genuinely value.

Over the past 20+ years, I’ve built and led design teams, launched products from zero to one, advised startups, and shaped digital experiences across AI, fintech, SaaS, healthcare, insurance, and global enterprises. As the first employee and VP of Design at Centime, I helped scale the company from 0 to 125+ people and built the design foundation for an award-winning financial technology platform. I have also guided more than 25 startups, created three world-first digital innovations, and helped raise capital for an AI venture.

My mentoring style is practical, honest, and deeply human. I can help you improve design quotient in product, marketing, and brand; improve product strategy; pitch for fundraising; build high-performing teams; or turn an early-stage idea into a credible business.

I’m also the creator of Joyful Design, an approach that combines UX, cognitive science, behavioral insight, business strategy, and emotional intelligence. I won’t simply tell you what to do. Together, we’ll uncover how you think, where you may be stuck, and what will create the greatest shift in your work and career.

Come with a challenge, an ambition, or even a half-formed idea. We’ll give it shape.
