About

With a Bachelor's degree in Administration & Information Management from Ryerson University, I have built a robust career in product design, specializing in creating scalable design systems and enhancing user experiences. Currently, as a Senior Product Designer at Teamshares, I contribute to the company's profitability and scalability by developing strategic product features and design philosophies. Previously, I served as a Principal Product Designer at Meroxa, where I facilitated a philosophical shift to empower software engineers, leveraging a TailwindCSS-based design system. My tenure at Adobe as a Lead Experience Designer involved directing the creation of the Sky Design System and mentoring a growing UX team. At Marketo, I played a pivotal role in overhauling the main product and developing the ABM Account Insights Chrome Plug-In, enhancing sales visibility into marketing efforts. My career reflects a commitment to fostering collaboration and innovation in the tech industry.
