Looking for design contract opportunities, 20-30 hrs/wk
About
I am a digital product designer with five years experience embedded in world-class product teams, mainly at Atlassian.
As a designer, I take a question-forward approach to get to the root of the problem, and then approach solutions holistically and thoroughly. Others have also described me as detailed and a good collaborator, and I'm a big fan of diagramming and prototyping to move the conversation forward.
Projects
I lead a three-day vision workshop, then brought my peers along in crafting the story and concept designs which would serve as our North star.
I lead design on a new social feature in Confluence, taking a scrappy, iterative approach with my PM to get feedback early and often.
I took design from research to deployment for a content management feature, gated per Confluence edition
Writing
The design standup: occasional home to colorful Kanban boards and perpetual home to exacting coffee standards. But how, amidst all the designer stereotypes we know and love, do we make it a good meeting? Can it be anything more than a status update?
Work Experience
Work on a broad range of areas for Confluence, Atlassian's team collaboration and wiki software. (This listing includes my time as an associate designer and designer)
Volunteering
U.S. Digital Response (USDR) helps governments, nonprofits, and public entities respond quickly to critical public needs.
Education
I completed my art major with a concentration in Graphic Design
