I lead a fully remote team of 14 Game, UI, UX, and Technical Designers, driving collaboration and high performance. I built the team from scratch, set clear goals, and developed a job matrix to support growth. I’ve also streamlined the design process with a clear framework that ensures accountability at every step. Beyond my day-to-day, I founded a cross-studio UI group that’s grown to 24 members, where we share best practices and push for continuous improvement across studios.

I cultivated a high-performing UI team, offering mentorship and managing production and execution. As the go-to for studio-wide interface needs, I defined roles and responsibilities while presenting work to senior leadership at the studio and XBox Game Studios. I also managed the UX compendium and Motorsport Design System, ensuring consistency across teams, and directed the creation of a new UI framework to streamline workflows. Additionally, I implemented Screen Importance Ratings to prioritize key areas of the game.

Studio shutdown on the exact same day I was hired!Was hired to align UX designs with UI designs, to bring predictability and best practices for UI development to the team to help launch product.

As the Art and UX leader for eight Topps trading card mobile apps, I managed the interface team, aligning workflows, wireframes, and designs across multiple IPs. I directed the UI framework architecture and led the implementation of a rapid app development framework. Additionally, I ensured consistency by overseeing designs within style guides and took a hands-on approach with Unity3D and C# to implement screens across all apps.

I oversaw the creation of 10 style guides, art directing and managing over 3,000 screens from concept to shipment. I led several technology initiatives, including integrating full-motion videos and pioneering 3DUI development, transforming EA Sports’ interfaces. I also implemented process improvements, such as an "Off Cycle Task List" that boosted performance, and spearheaded a UI sharing initiative between Madden and NCAA.On the coding side, I established coding standards, led framework transitions, and scripted thousands of screens. In management, I mentored a team of over 20, handled UI production deliverables, and synced schedules across scrum pods to ensure timely and high-quality results.
