Design Process

It is important to have alignment across the board on goals, KPIs and what problem(s) we are trying to solve up front. I encourage collaboration with research and analytics to help narrow the problem(s) and guide design direction. Throughout design, it is extremely valuable to receive both internal feedback as well as customer feedback as we iterate through solutions. Finally, when launching, ensuring quality of implementation, and monitoring results to identify future improvements.
