Learn constantly, design thoughtfully, adapt often.
I am what they call a “serial expat”. I was born and raised in the USA between a cattle ranch in Wyoming and the scenic mountains of Utah — but I have spent a good part of my life moving and living around the world.
Currently, I focus on design & product strategy based in Switzerland. I use my experience in business and design to take a pragmatic look at how things can be designed, in the most aesthetic way possible. This also applies to my planning and excel sheets.
Overall, I focus on challenging, innovative digital projects that use Agile Methodology and Design Thinking. I am passionate about learning new things, problem solving, and adapting to new methods and project needs. I have experience working with teams internationally, living in North America, Europe and South East Asia.

What I bring to
teams I work with…
I care about the end-to-end experience and the people who make it happen
I think about the entire journey and the people along the way — From the users to the team of designers, product managers, engineers, and stakeholders. I’m not afraid to try new things and embrace failure as a way of learning. Thus, I always try to find a solution to any problem that arises.
Being adaptable allows me to shift quickly from big picture to tactical
With my experience in many different project types and sizes, I can quickly go from overseeing and empowering the entire design process to being directly involved with specific project work. I am constantly curious and am always on the look out for new tools, activities, and methodologies that can enable more effective design and product strategies..
My international experience allows me to think and communicate more effectively
Having lived in five countries across three different continents, my international experience has allowed me to look at design and products from different perspectives and cultures. This helps me understand and be able communicate effectively across various different groups and stakeholders.
