I have a passion for coaching and mentoring UX Research leaders to use their people-centric superpowers to amplify their impact. Too often we see our roles relegated to validation of someone else's vision when in fact our connection to the end user is what can revolutionize everything: a resonant product experience, an cross-disciplinary and fun product development process, and a mission-driven and engaged team dynamic. How? The honest truth is that you have all the skills necessary to pull this off already. Your research mindset will set you free. I've personally used this mindset to grow: From an IC researcher to Research Lead for a small team to Leader for an entire UX discipline (Research, Design, Writing, and more) to Leader for both UX and Business Strategy (Strategy Operations and Sales) to Leader for multiple startups as an Investment Partner with an AI focused Incubator Yes, my *research mindset* is what enabled my growth and success. I'd love to partner with you on your journey. There are 2 ways we can work together: 1. I’m coaching and mentoring the next generation of UX Research Leaders to achieve their potential through 1-1 executive coaching. Let’s unlock your hidden leadership superpowers. 2. I’m delivering talks and workshops to teams covering topics like building strong user experience teams, cultivating customer obsession, and forging a people-centered culture.
