My Leadership Philosophy
For me, leadership is all about nurturing growth and creativity. It's about creating an environment where every member feels empowered to bring their unique ideas to the table, and where innovation is not just encouraged but celebrated. Product design is not just about functionality—it's about crafting beautiful experiences that bring people delight and wonder.
Design & Collaboration Principals
Openness
I believe in fostering an environment where ideas flow freely, where everyone feels encouraged to share their unique perspectives. By promoting open communication, we create a space where creativity can flourish and innovation can take root.
Diversity & Inclusivity
By embracing inclusivity and celebrating our differences, we create a culture where everyone feels welcomed and valued for who they are. A diverse design team brings a variety of perspectives that not only enrich our creative process but also help us design products that resonate with a wider range of users. This inclusivity leads to more innovative solutions and ultimately enhances the quality and reach of the products we create.
Humor
Humour is more than just a break from the day—it's a catalyst for creativity. I believe in infusing laughter into our daily interactions, fostering a lighthearted atmosphere where innovative ideas thrive and our creative journey is fueled by joy.
Empowerment
I believe in empowering designers to take ownership of their work and grow through challenges. By giving people the autonomy and support to take risks, we cultivate confidence and foster individual and collective success.

Her growth as a UX designer has been complimented by her growth as a leader. Thinking through challenges, doing the research, and always considering the end-user and the challenges and barriers that they will face.

In difficult and tense situations, she always makes sure to remain cool and patient when presenting her arguments, and endeavours to be empathetic and understanding for all sides when making difficult decisions."
