Product Design + Strategy + Leadership
I have built design studios for IBM GSC from 0. It involved not only creating a team from scratch, but also advocating the role of design in a complex technological landscape. My experience includes, but is not limited to, building teams, designing systems, and creating a culture that enables great design. I've taken organizations from "design is making things pretty" to "design drives strategy" three times, scaling teams, advancing maturity, and proving ROI through metrics.
