Design Career Handbook: Everything You Need to Know to Get a Job and Be Successful

I believe that design positively impacts business when you create lovable products that solve problems, improve lives, and make people happy. I’m obsessed with learning a little something about everything. I’ve led groups including product management, design, user research, and content strategy at companies such as LinkedIn, 23andMe, and Verizon.

For over 25 years, I’ve built teams that have launched innovative solutions across domains, including content publishing, entertainment, education, and consumer health. I co-led an innovation incubator and co-founded two start-ups. I have also been an independent consultant and worked for a pop star.
