I have worked for a broad range of clients from small, fast-moving startups to Fortune 100 clients with multi-year, multi-million dollar projects.
I have worked for some of the largest digital consultancies in the US and Europe, including AnswerThink, Scient, and Digitas. In the course of my career I have conducted user research in seven countries and helped ship meaningful, delightful products that millions of users interact with on a daily basis.
Most recently I was the Vice President and Head of User Experience Research and Design for Charles Schwab, a leading financial institution with over $7 trillion under management.
