Turn early product ideas into clear direction your team can actually build.
I work with leaders at growing companies to shape ideas before they hit the product backlog—through strategic workshops, journey mapping, and lightweight UX validation that reduces guesswork and builds alignment
Who I am
I’m a UX strategist with experience across in-house teams and agencies, helping organizations translate complexity into customer-centered direction. My work sits between business strategy and product execution: clarifying where to focus, what to test, and how to move forward with more confidence.
When product ideas are still fuzzy, teams often move too quickly into delivery. I help leadership teams slow down just enough to clarify the problem, align around priorities, and test what matters before work reaches product and engineering.
The result is a stronger roadmap, better stakeholder alignment, and more confidence that what gets built will work for both customers and the business.
How Can I Help Your Team
When product ideas are still fuzzy, teams often move too quickly into delivery. I help leadership teams slow down just enough to clarify the problem, align around priorities, and test what matters before work reaches product and engineering.
The result is a stronger roadmap, better stakeholder alignment, and more confidence that what gets built will work for both customers and the business. I can help with:
Strategy workshops
I facilitate working sessions that help leadership teams define the right problem, align around customer and business priorities, and create a shared path forward.
Roadmapping and opportunity framing
I turn ambiguity into structure through journey maps, opportunity areas, problem statements, and decision-ready recommendations that product teams can act on.
Concept and UX validation
Before ideas go too far, I use lightweight research, prototypes, and usability testing to surface friction, sharpen assumptions, and reduce rework later.
