Lead Product Designer for Startups with Purpose

For eleven years, I led the design team at a digital agency. I've worked on end-to-end delivery for over a hundred digital projects from idea to conception. I've had the pleasure of designing interfaces for household names and industry disruptors alike.

Redesigned a Shopping Center's iOS and Android App
- Lead 3D Designer
- Product Strategy
During the height and aftermath of Covid, I enhanced this major shopping mall owner's directory mobile app by making wayfinding more efficient and covid friendly.

Fully Redesigned a Global Automaker's Website
To accompany a large rebrand to this automotive company's branding, I lead the redesign of their Canadian website to reflect the new brand while also improving the experience to make it easy for prospective car buyers to window shop, build, and preorder the vehicle of their dreams.

From the ground up, I led the design for the first tool in Canada that allows users to buy home and auto insurance without speaking to an agent. No other Canadian insurance company had done this before because Canadian personal insurance can be complex, with different standards and rules across provinces.

Typical quoter tools are simple but can only give you just that - a quote. I worked on a tool that aimed to be just as simple as the typical quoter but passed every regulation while being easy for everyone to understand insurance through clear language around coverage and pricing.
