Vp Of Design And User Experience
CurrentAs the VP of Design and User Experience at StackHawk, I lead the product and design team focused on redefining application security testing for developers and security professionals. As the founding designer, I built and established the product and design function from the ground up, successfully launching initial MVPs, establishing product-market fit, and defining a holistic brand and product experience across digital, visual, and IRL design. By applying modern DevOps principles, I modernized application security testing, empowering developers and driving significant growth.As the company scaled, I implemented robust design and development frameworks, establishing key processes such as project kickoffs, design reviews, customer discovery sessions, and quarterly planning. These efforts foster a collaborative and creative work environment, ensuring alignment across product, design, and engineering, driving continuous improvement and innovation. My contributions have been instrumental in building and growing the entire company, helping StackHawk evolve to meet the demands of a growing customer base.
