About Me

I’m a product design leader focused on creating inclusive, high-impact digital experiences at scale. I bring together strategy, systems thinking, and culture to align design with real business and user outcomes.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve led cross-functional teams through ambiguity—shaping clear product direction, embedding inclusive design into delivery, and scaling practices that drive meaningful impact.

I also teach inclusion and accessibility at RMIT University and mentor emerging designers, with a focus on supporting women in design.
