Design Leadership

I like to stay involved in the work. It helps me give useful feedback, understand where people are getting stuck, and see which parts of a process need to change.

At Prop Store, I built workflows and trained the team to produce catalogs ranging from 100 to more than 400 pages. The work had previously been handled project by project. Standardizing it increased efficiency by 50% and made a demanding production schedule easier to manage.

At Scorpion, I worked on client projects while helping improve how the team designed and handed off work. That included overhauling specifications, running quarterly team kickoffs and Enterprise Figma training, and creating reusable project libraries. Working with engineering, product, and project teams helped reduce design-to-development timelines by 25% within a year.

A lot of this comes down to noticing what keeps causing questions or extra work. I care about organized files, clear notes, and giving people enough context to make decisions. I want the team to feel comfortable asking for help, and I hold myself to the same expectations I have for everyone else.
