Hi, I'm Theresa.

PRINCIPAL PRODUCT DESIGNER

For over 25 years in Product Design, I've had the pleasure of partnering with organizations to improve lives and business outcomes by understanding people, creating alignment, and solving complex problems.

Leadership

"She navigates adversity and difficult dynamics with steadiness. She doesn't rattle easily, she doesn't let friction derail progress, and she finds a way to move things forward even when the path isn't obvious."

Creating great products starts with creating the right conditions for teams to succeed. That happens when we focus on relationship building, operational efficiency, alignment, and by ensuring UX is included and inclusive. In my roles in both design leadership and individual contributorship, I've seen the power of what people can do when we care.

My goal as a design leader is to guide with understanding, elevate quality, create and enhance designs systems, and have a measurable impact on business success. I do this by fostering an environment of calm, candor, clarity, and celebration with my UX teams, and by partnering cross-functionally to identify shared goals and requirements, reduce friction, and help organizations adopt the UCD mindset by proving the value of a good experience.
