Case studies
I’ve led UX projects, and teams, where aligning stakeholders across company verticals while collaborating closely with tech teams was key. From feature improvements to experience killers to POCs to hackathons, I used internal data analytics and customer insights to shape UX strategies that aligned with business goals. If we need to prove ROI with a quick and dirty POC, then so be it. Driving innovation is all about creating visions that delivers real value and results to customers and business alike.
