Capabilities

Seven disciplines, sharpened over time.

The work translates between executive strategy and end-user reality — bridging business objectives, design craft, and the adoption science that makes new technology actually land.

01

Product Leadership

Strategy that bridges business goals and user satisfaction. Translating enterprise complexity into clear product direction across digital workplace and consumer surfaces.

02

Design & Research

In-house research as a discipline — usability testing, ethnography, behavioral analytics. Translating user signal into product decisions executives can act on.

03

People & Team Building

Pioneered the UX discipline at AdventHealth. Assembled and cultivated high-performing teams. The work of building a practice as much as the work of leading one.

04

Design Thinking

Human-centered design as both a method and a culture. Facilitating discovery and design sessions that solve genuine customer needs through diverse expertise.

05

Applied AI

Enterprise rollouts of GenAI, Copilot, and custom agentic platforms — with attention to the adoption work that makes new technology actually land.

06

Agile Methods

Iterative development as a discipline of learning. Promoting adaptability and efficient delivery in environments not built for either.

07

Executive Partnerships

SOW oversight, value & ROI accountability with partners, and stakeholder alignment across departments. The work of making external engagements deliver on what they promise.

Education

Three degrees, one through-line.

Design has been the lens — first as craft, then as research, then as a way of seeing systems.
