My Management Style

Hire multi talented UX designers

I prioritize hiring well-rounded UX professionals who blend empathy, versatility, and strong communication skills. In smaller teams, UXers need to wear multiple hats—skillfully balancing research, design, visual craft, and stakeholder collaboration. The ability to connect and advocate for users across disciplines is just as important as any tool or methodology they bring.

Mentorship and Career Growth

I view my role as a personal investment in each designer's growth. We define goals together—what they're excelling at, where they want to improve, and where they see themselves in the future. This collaborative guidance builds trust and engagement, elevating both individual careers and the team’s overall impact.

Empowered Ownership with Clear Direction

I provide clear high-level direction and thoughtful feedback, then trust designers to own their UX process within those boundaries. Whether navigating cross-functional challenges or optimizing workflows, I'm always available to support, guide, and unblock as needed.

Building Durable Processes Through Collaboration

I co-create processes with the team—inviting them to own elements like style guides, file structures, or icon libraries. This participation fosters investment and ensures quality ownership. Weekly design reviews reinforce constructive critique, cultivate objectivity, and strengthen team cohesion without micromanagement.

Cross-Functional Alignment

Design thrives in harmony with other disciplines. I actively collaborate with product, engineering, and marketing leads to align timelines, clarify goals, and adapt our approach to deliver value while respecting constraints.

Feedback-Driven Growth

Feedback isn't a one-way street. I welcome insights from my team, peers, and leaders, treating feedback as an essential tool for continuous improvement. My aim is not just to lead but to grow—alongside my team.
