Leadership Values

My leadership philosophy is built on clarity, care, and collaboration. I believe design leaders must create the conditions for teams to thrive — balancing vision with execution, process with people, and career growth with business impact. At the core, my role is to empower designers to do their best work while feeling supported as individuals.

As a Visionary, Catalyst and Mentor, I bring my leadership values to life through my Style, Management, and Ownership approach.
