Most designers are brought in after the problem is defined. Much of my design work has been earlier, helping companies work out what the problem actually is, what to build, and then bring it to life.

I'm interested in senior product/design leadership roles where I can shape strategy, build strong teams, set visions, or connect design to business direction.
