Hi, I’m Jess 👋
👋 I'm a strategic designer with 14 years in the tech world, and I've worn just about every hat you can imagine—from a hands-on individual contributor to design leadership, and most recently, a strategic partner to a CEO, helping set the entire product direction.
Having worked with both startups and large enterprises, I've learned that a great product vision isn't enough; it's the ability to truly understand human needs and, in close collaboration with engineering and product, turn that understanding into a product experience that people love.
For me, it's about so much more than just the design. It's about using data to find the sweet spot between business goals and human needs. I love crafting MVPs to prove out ideas, ensuring we build the right thing at the right time. Learn, build, ship, and repeat.
As a design leader, I've had the privilege of guiding teams through exciting times of change and growth. I genuinely love fostering human connections through empathy and active listening, seeing collaboration and inclusion as essential for true innovation. Happy people create awesome stuff.
Lets talk!
