About me

Versatile & Agile

As a design leader with 15+ years in design and tech, I empower design teams to create user-centered solutions while staying hands-on with design, shaping strategies that innovate, elevate, and simplify operations.

I’ve worked across series/seed startups, agencies, and enterprise, building high-performing teams that deliver on ambitious goals in industries like healthcare & consumer health, HR, real estate, government, DevOps and AI.

Distills and Simplifies

I’m skilled in driving product vision, fostering innovation, and transforming ambiguity into clarity. I excel at adaptability and lead agile design teams for both growth and slowdowns, ensuring alignment with business objectives. Shaping product vision, driving collaboration, and creating business impact, I bring a proven track record in impactful design, UX operations, and cross-functional partnerships.

    expanding design operations and enhancing UX design maturity.

What some of my former colleagues have to say.

"Jennifer was a delight to work with and always demonstrated leadership within our squad. She was great on customer calls, could pivot at a moment's notice, and goes the extra mile to ensure products are not just usable, but delightful."

Alex Lockhart, Product Manager - Trainual

"Jen is great! She leverages her technical background to make informed decisions, but equally a great communicator with PMs and stakeholders. I have always valued her design feedback and how she led a team of 5 designers."
