Previously, at Vimeo and Discovery, I drove innovative design solutions—boosting upsell interest by 200% and leading award-winning UX enhancements for 35M+ monthly users.Beyond execution, I’m deeply invested in mentorship and education. As an adjunct professor and author of The Art and Science of UX Design, I’ve influenced countless designers and helped shape global UX programs.
