a little about me. . .

25-year data geek.

​
An acknowledged UX / UI professional with over 34 years in design (10 in visual design, 24 in enterprise & analytics software) with a focus in; analytics, big data, ML, BA, BI, and AI. I partner directly with Engineering (front and back-end, QA/Test), and other Stakeholder Team members, on a daily basis.

I am a professional UX / UI Mentor for 4 companies in my spare time. I am a lifelong Mentor as well as a Mentee. Teaching people to think differently, and how to approach and solve problems, together, is incredibly fulfilling, and constantly learning to improve both myself and my craft is essential to me. Being a Mentor is an honor and very humbling for me.
