The most beautiful things in life are not seen, read or heard - they are felt.
 
 

For more than the past decade, I’ve worked on building digital experiences for their targeted audience. I believe great design is about 2 things;

  • Human relationships, feelings and emotions.

  • Complexity communicated in simplicity, clarity & consistency.

As a product design manager, I aim to guide people towards achieving more than what they think they are capable of. I lead by focusing on what is right, not who is right.

As a product & service designer, I aim to drive change using transparency, trust, communication and collaboration within teams, always working with the most measurable outcomes possible.

I am currently based in Montreal (Canada) and work as a Product Design Manager for Monks, a global consultation company solving complex business problems through optimization of process, technology, and culture.

 

What I am known for:

  • Radical candor, active listening, transparent communication.

  • Product vision, workshop facilitation, design operations.

  • User research, experience & system mapping.

  • Product design execution.
