Story. Strategy. Design. Product.

STRATEGIC, creative, & DESIGN LEADERSHIP

I identify the critical animating stories of a business—crafting them with rigor, clarity, and resonance. From there, I design world-class products, brands, services, and experiences. I’ve built my career through a decade of design and innovation at IDEO; international journalism and reporting with the BBC; theater making in London; improv in New York; and philosophy at Oxford.

in support of AMAZING TEAMS

I’m fluent across a range of design and product disciplines, but expert only in a few. I owe my success to my teams: I build and lead healthy, inclusive, and thriving design communities, and create the conditions for creative teams, individuals, and emerging leaders to learn and grow.
